Grafton Ferry
The Grafton ferry is located on the Illinois side of the Mississippi- River at the foot of Illinois Route 3, just upriver of the Grafton public boat ramp. On the Missouri side, it terminates just off of Grafton Ferry Road alongside the St. Charles County Airport. From there it is a short ride to highway 94 and about 10 miles to the St. Charles city line. Fares are $8 each way ($5 for motorcycles, $4 for bicycles, & $3 for pedestrians) with reduced rates for round trips. The Grafton Ferry operates 6 am - 8 pm Monday through Thursday, 6 am - 10 pm on Friday, 8 am - 10 pm on Saturday, and 10 am - 9 pm on Sundays and runs every day except for Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day, or when river conditions prevent safe operation.
