The Cave-In-Rock Ferry will no longer be available on weekends until further notice.
Operations will continue on normal schedule Monday through Friday.
On an average day around 500 commuters depend on the ferry to get to and from jobs.
It also serves as a tourist attraction and a tourism link between the Shawnee National Forest and the nearby Amish Community.
When the ferry is closed it turns a normal 10 mile trip between Cave-In-Rock, Il and Marion, Ky into a 70 minute detour.
A reason for the weekend closure has not been released.
