The government of Havana reported that, following the departure of Hurricane Milton and the gradual return to normalcy, transportation service in the Bay of Havana has been restored using the Regla ferry.

According to the official statement published on Facebook by the profile Transportación Habana TH, the service will be operational again starting at 9:00 am on October 10, 2024.

Last Tuesday, due to the effects of Hurricane Milton, the government of Havana suspended boat transportation services in the Bay, announcing that it would resume as soon as conditions allowed.

As predicted, Hurricane Milton caused damage in the western part of Cuba, with strong sea surges in Havana, resulting in flooding in areas such as El Vedado.

At dawn this Thursday, much of El Vedado woke up without electricity due to the rains, but primarily because of the sea incursions.

In addition to Havana, the powerful cyclone also created adverse conditions in the rest of western Cuba, mainly gusty winds, strong waves, and intermittent showers associated with the feeder bands.

Hurricane Milton, now at category 1, is currently moving away from the eastern coast of Florida, but it continues to bring damaging winds and heavy rains to the central and eastern regions of the state.
