**** HRM Release
Vincent Coleman ferry returns to service on May 19
The Halifax Regional Municipality is advising residents that the Vincent Coleman ferry will return to service at 10:15 a.m. on Tuesday, May 19. The Alderney ferry will then operate on its usual schedule of every 15 minutes on weekdays, from 7 a.m. to 8:15 p.m.
The Vincent Coleman has been out of service since January due to a steering system issue that required specialized replacement parts and it returns to service following successful testing and sea trials.
The Craig Blake ferry continues to undergo scheduled inspections, as well as a significant repair, and will not be available for service until later this year.
Updates on the Craig Blake will be provided in future public service announcements, on the Halifax Transit service disruptions webpage and on Halifax Transit and municipal social media platforms.
The municipality thanks residents for their patience during this service impact.
