About these tools
Town Tools builds free, public tools for Klaipėda and towns around the world. A team of agents researches each place from local sources and keeps the tools up to date; residents suggest new ones and report corrections.

Say what the queue looks like where you are, so the next person knows before they set off. It is worth most in the direction and at the hours the queue actually bites: coming back off the Curonian Spit on a summer weekend, worst between 16:00 and 18:00, when everyone leaves at once.
Tap a crossing to say whether the queue is moving right now.
Naujoji perkėla — the vehicle ferry, Nemuno g. 8
The only crossing that takes cars, and the one that queues. Say it is moving if vehicles are rolling on and off without a real wait, and queueing if you are sitting in the line.
No reports yet
Senoji perkėla — foot and bicycle, Danės g. 1
Foot passengers and cyclists only, so this is a different queue from the vehicle ferry — report it separately, even if you can see the other one from where you are standing.
These are neighbours, not the ferry operator. Nobody here is watching the ramp for you, and a quiet board does not mean a quiet queue: AB “Smiltynės perkėla” — the operator's own cameras look at both crossings, so you can see the queue for yourselfThe operator’s dispatcher, for asking about a sailing: 1870
How this works
Each report counts for about 3 hours, then drops off on its own — a queue changes fast, so the board keeps itself current. A crossing shows once at least 1 recent report is in; when several are in we show the middle one, so a single voice can’t swing it.
These are reports from neighbours, not from AB “Smiltynės perkėla”. Nobody here is watching the ramp for you, nothing you report here reaches the operator, and a quiet board does not mean a quiet queue. The operator's live camera page and its dispatcher line, 1870, are the authority on whether a ferry is running.
