• Guidelines for drug and alcohol testing

Ferry operators must hold a contract from Transport for NSW which sets out the responsibilities of the operator in delivering passenger services. Ferry operators must comply with the Passenger Transport Act and relevant regulations.

Ferry operators can obtain further information by calling Transport for NSW's Services Division on (02) 9891 8900.

Ferries are also subject to the relevant commercial vessel and marine legislation and regulations managed by the NSW Maritime Authority. For information, visit the Maritime website .
