• All NY Waterway crew members have been trained by the United Spinal Association in assisting and helping persons with disabilities.
• All non compliant NY Waterway steps and gangways have been removed from Pier 11.
• Portable compliant ramps have been placed on Pier 11.
• Emergency portable gangplanks have been added to each vessel in the event the Pier gangways or portable gangways are not accessible.
• All vessels have been equipped with wheel chair tie downs in the event an individual would like to be secured on board the vessel.
• Signage has been added on board the vessels.

In the event assistance is required or wanted please feel free to ask a crew member.  We would like to thank you for your continued patronage.
