CARTERET, NJ \u2014 The groundbreaking for the Carteret ferry terminal will be this Friday, Dec. 12.<\/p>\n
This is the four-story 52,000-square-foot ferry terminal Carteret is building next to Waterfront Park on the Arthur Kill, located at 200 Middlesex Avenue.<\/p>\n
The proposed Carteret ferry terminal will have a ticketing area, restrooms, leasable office space, restaurants, retail, rooftop space open to the public, a bar\/lounge and an event hall.<\/p>\n
The town is aiming for an early 2028 opening of the ferry terminal. However, ferry service may start running before that, as customers would be able to purchase tickets through a smartphone app on a kiosk on the dock of the ferry slips \u2014 that is, if Carteret signs a deal with a ferry provider to provide the service, such as NY Waterways or SeaStreak. In August, the town of Carteret said they would even consider running the ferries themselves<\/a>, if they cannot secure a ferry provider.<\/p>\n Carteret already has two ferry boats: The Theodore Roosevelt is docked at the Carteret town marina, and the second is under construction in New Orleans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CARTERET, NJ \u2014 The groundbreaking for the Carteret ferry terminal will be this Friday, Dec. 12.
