Editing Ferry (section)

===Foot ferry===
Foot ferries are small craft used to ferry foot passengers, and often also cyclists, over rivers. These are either self-propelled craft or cable ferries. Such ferries are for example to be found on the lower [[Schelde|River Scheldt]] in [[Belgium]] and in particular the [[Netherlands]]. Regular foot ferry service also exists in the capital of the Czech Republic, Prague, and across the [[Yarra River]] in Melbourne, Australia at [[Newport, Victoria|Newport]]. Restored, expanded ferry service in the [[Port of New York and New Jersey]] uses boats for pedestrians only.

The UK has a variety of historic foot ferries such as the Butley Foot Ferry across [[Butley Creek]] which dates back to 1383.<ref>{{Cite news |date=2024-03-09 |title=The people keeping our historic foot ferries afloat |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-68428422 |access-date=2024-03-10 |work=BBC News |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=The Four Foot Ferries of The Suffolk Coast |url=https://www.thesuffolkcoast.co.uk/four-foot-ferries-of-the-suffolk-coast |access-date=2024-03-10 |website=www.thesuffolkcoast.co.uk |language=en}}</ref>
