The East River Ferry experiment has proved such a success that its operations will be extended five years beyond the pilot project stage, till 2019. Bloomberg will announce the news today, citing that ridership has apparently tripled since service began in 2011. A few tweaks include fares for weekend service jumping from $4 to $6, and a decrease in winter weekend service, but hey, all aboard. [Crain's; previously]
