Feasibility Considerations
Strong political will is essential to introduce new service
MTA is subsidizing Haverstraw - Ossining Ferry, Newburgh - Beacon Ferry services
MTA is not proactively seeking to subsidize a new ferry-to-rail service; need to secure grants
Operators would want to study feasibility before introducing a new service

1. What is the feasibility of a ferry service that enhances connectivity between Nyack, Tarryrtown, and the greater Hudson Valley/ New York City region?
2. What are some implementation strategies that would address the question above?

Research Questions - REVISITED
feasibility implementation
Ferry Options Commuter and excursions Begin with commuter service due to ‘known’ ridership
Catchment Area Nyack and lower Rockland County Promote ferry to Lower Rockland County, not just Nyack
Residential Profile Interest in additional transit options
Transit Modes Time and Cost savings
Pier Sites Available options Consider piers already used by private operators
Excursions Potential for Nyack as a destination Develop Nyack’s tourism potential
Parking Proposals and Alternatives Show how a terrace will benefit Nyack, not just ferry users
Sustainability Overall negative environmental impact
Ridership Projections Commuters to Mid and Lower Manhattan

Conclusions
1. A Nyack-Tarrytown ferry service is feasible with capital improvements and operating costs subsidized by the MTA. A parking terrace is necessary to support a commuter ferry service. The terrace would also serve to accommodate increased demand for parking in Nyack.
2. A market exists for a service between Nyack and Mid Manhattan/39th St., which will be further enhanced by additional job development at the nearby Hudson Yards.
3. A market can be created for weekend excursions from the 39th St. pier to Nyack and the lower Hudson Valley.
4. A market does not exist for a Nyack to Lower Manhattan ferry service due to a very low level of Rockland commuters destined for this area now and in the near future.
