The Gagetown Ferry is a cable ferry in the Canadian province of New Brunswick. The ferry crosses the Saint John River, linking Gagetown on the west bank with Lower Jemseg on the east bank.[1]

The crossing is 0.7 kilometres (0.43 mi) in length, takes 5 minutes, and is free of tolls. The ferry carries up to 12 cars at a time, and operates 24 hours a day all year. It is operated by the New Brunswick Department of Transportation.[1][2]

As of February, 2016, the ferry service has been eliminated as part of a cost-saving measure put in place by the government.[3]
