Gondola Point Ferry

The Gondola Point Ferry is a double-ended cable ferry crossing the Kennebecasis River in Kings County, New Brunswick, Canada. It connects Gondola Point in Quispamsis on the south bank to Reed's Point on the Kingston Peninsula, carrying New Brunswick Route 119 and linking it to New Brunswick Route 845 on the peninsula. Two cable ferries share the route, with each carrying up to 24 cars.

History
Ferry service at Gondola Point dates back to as early as 1825. By the turn of the 20th century, ferry operation at Gondola Point had consisted of a sail-and-oar scow until 1903, when Captain William Pitt invented the underwater cable ferry. Vessels used to operate the ferry service were updated in the 2000s. The William Pitt II was commissioned in 2007. ==References==
