STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- The city Department of Transportation (DOT) has announced that the Staten Island Ferry will provide hourly overnight service from Monday, July 25, at 11 p.m., until Tuesday, July 26, at 5 a.m.

Boats will depart from the St. George Terminal on the hour and from the Whitehall Terminal on the half-hour.

Typically, the Staten Island Ferry would provide service half-hourly service during this time.

In the advisory, the department reminded Staten Island Ferry passengers that face masks are required at all times when within the terminals and onboard the boats, despite the federal mask mandate for public transportation being voided in April.

In recent months, the DOT has been forced to run modified service numerous times, particularly during afternoon and overnight hours, due to personnel issues limiting the department’s ability to adequately staff the boats.
