点评:The East Haddam bridge is closed on Sundays (11pm) and all day tues and Wednesday’s. Today I arrived at the ferry on Chester side. About 20 cars in front of me. Literally waited for over an hour and a half for this crew to do this ferrying of cars. Watched them as they waited over on Hadlyme side to “have a full load “. I’ve lived and grown up as a child taking this ferry for over 60 years.
Never before have I witnessed such a slow ans sloppy crew and captain. When I finally got to board after waiting like never ever before I witnessed the captain having left the wheel ——-DIRECTING CARS ONTO FERRY. THEY have for DECADES -ALWAYS HELPED TO SPEED THE RIDE UP BY TAKING THE TOLLS ON THE BOAT FROM CAR TO CAR, AS IT CROSSES!!
With miles of cars backed up on both sides of the river I watched this one crew member saunter out off the ferry ——TO STOP EACH CAR AND TAKE THE TOLLS PRIOR TO LETTING CARS ON. INSANITY. WHICH IS WHY THERE ARE MILES OF BACKED UP CARS HAVING TO WAIT NOW FOE HOURS TO USE
THIS TAX
DOLLAR SUPPORTED FERRY AND THEIR CREW.
MY ADVICE ON MONDAYS AND TUESDAYS ?? TAKE THE PORTLAND OR BALDWIN BRIDGE. YOULL SAVE TIME ANS $. Sickening to have seen this after taking this zippy ferry ride for decades.
翻译:东哈达姆大桥每周日(晚上 11 点)以及周二和周三全天关闭。今天我到达了切斯特一侧的渡轮。我前面大约有20辆车。实际上,工作人员等了一个半小时才完成这次汽车运输。看着他们在哈德莱姆一侧等待“满载”。我小时候就乘坐这艘渡轮生活和成长了 60 多年。
我以前从未见过如此缓慢和马虎的船员和船长。当我在前所未有的等待后终于登上了船时,我亲眼目睹了船长离开了方向盘——指挥汽车驶上渡轮。几十年来,他们总是通过收取船上从一辆车到另一辆车的通行费来帮助加快行驶速度!
河两岸停满了数英里的汽车,我看着一名船员从渡轮上慢悠悠地走出来——在让汽车上车之前停下每辆车并收取通行费。疯狂。这就是为什么有数英里的备用汽车现在必须等待敌人几个小时才能使用
这项税
美元支持的渡轮及其船员。
我对周一和周二的建议?走波特兰桥或鲍德温桥。您将节省时间和金钱。几十年来乘坐这趟快速的渡轮,看到这样的景象真是令人作呕。
