White's Ferry Could Return Soon | Washington DC News

White’s Ferry, the historic crossing between Maryland and Virginia shut down in 2020, is on the verge of returning — thanks to a major deal between Montgomery County and private owners Chuck and Stacy Kuhn. The county will buy the Maryland-side land and take over ferry operations, a move aimed at pressuring Virginia’s private dock owner to reach an agreement. With nearly 800 vehicles crossing daily before the shutdown, commuters are eager for its return — and officials hope this deal will save drivers money while avoiding costly legal battles over eminent domain. The Virginia side still needs to agree, but this is a huge step forward.
