The bridge was nearing completion when we were there but no workers/vehicles around. The ferry no longer exists.

New bridge nearing completion and now partly open. No longer necessary to take a ferry.
Giant super highway now through the park (talking to lodge owners several animals have been killed as a result of large trucks speeding and not getting out of the way of the wildlife.) Apparently oil was found at the bottom of Lake Albert and a Chinese-built superhighway funded by oil giant Total has been created (hence the nice bridge and new road.) It's nice to have a new road and bridge to drive on, but the environmental cost seems to be too high.

Ferry still out of order reason flood. Big bridge still under construction. BUT you can take a small bridge always open beside the main one. Today was passable with a 4x4. No sign on weight limit but big trucks are passing. Passage is free!

The ferry is out of order since July 2020 due to flooding. Call the authorities before you plan to cross here or ask at your entrance gate. The new bridge might be finished at around mid/end of 2021.

The ferry is grounded every year in November for about 2 weeks due maintenance. In this Time there is no possibility to cross the nile with a car. You have to drive around witch takes a a couple of hours!
If you travel in this season make sure you check on the schedule with the parc authority.
