The Lake Champlain ferry between Charlotte, Vt., and Essex, N.Y., is running again.

The Lake Champlain Transportation Company says 50 truckloads of gravel were used to elevate the ferry dock on the New York side to keep vehicles and passengers out of the water.

After heavy spring rains and snowmelt, the lake level is 102.2 feet above sea level, nearly 2 feet above flood stage.

The Charlotte ferry service was suspended at the end of April. It resumed today.

The ferry between Burlington and Port Kent, N.Y., hasn’t started its summer service yet. Other ferries are running normally.
