Caltrans Delta Ferries
Ferries in the Delta region play a significant role in the transportation network by connecting communities and providing access to remote areas.
- Real McCoy II Ferry: Operates on State Route 84, connecting Ryer Island and Solano County. It is a crucial link for local residents and tourists.
- J-Mack Ferry: Operates on State Route 220, connecting Ryer Island and Grand Island. This ferry is essential for both agricultural transport and local commuting.
The Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta, also known as the California Delta, is a crucial hub in Northern California's transportation network. Situated between Sacramento, Solano and San Joaquin counties, the Delta is formed by the confluence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers. Caltrans, through its various divisions, plays a pivotal role in maintaining and enhancing the transportation infrastructure for this region.
The Delta serves as a major corridor for highways and bridges that facilitate the movement of goods and people. Caltrans District 3, District 4 and District 10 are primarily responsible for the Delta region, ensuring the safety and efficiency of the roadways that connect this vital area to the rest of the state.
