Good to Know?
The road to Park Point crosses the Aerial Lift Bridge, which operates on a schedule: It lifts on the hour and half-hour, between 7 a.m. and 9 p.m., seven days a week, from March 16 through Dec. 31. The bridge will be raised on request for all vessels from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m., seven days a week. Allowing ample time for these bridge events is essential for returning to the ship on time.
