Well, I mean they can't really do much about it. Vehicles break down. That's life. It's a bit difficult to organise "ferry replacement bus" to shuttle commuters from one side of the river to the other for obvious reasons. Unless they have another ferry on standby, they will just have to wait until the ferry is fixed.

But I do see what you mean about the communication. I have said in another thread how the reasoning as to why a service has been cancelled or altered (in particular, trains) has drastically improve over the past couple of weeks.

[achiruel]

Could a few of the CityCats have crossed the river (not every one, I mean like every half hour or so). Or can CityCats not dock at Norman Park?

[Cazza]

I'm no ferry expert so someone else might have a better answer than me but I don't believe they can due to them being a significantly larger vessel. If you look at the satellite image on Google Maps (link below), there isn't much room between the CityFerry wharf and the private wharf just off to the east, plus the depth could be an issue too. Also, if the broken down ferry was getting fixed over at Norman Park Terminal, then there wouldn't be any space for the CityCat anyway.

Compared to the Kangaroo Pt - Riverside and Teneriffe - Bulimba ferries, the New Farm - Norman Park ferry gets extremely low patronage, and has a reasonable viable alternative in Mobray Park (1.1km away), with the option to catch the bus if need be. There was an article back in 2012 which stated that the ferry only has 137 trips on it per day, in both directions.

I'd be curious to see who actually uses the service - unlike CBD - Builmba with CityGlider, + Ferry CBD - Norman Park with 196 + Ferry is quite slow, with the 196 taking 20 mins vs. a 235 or 227 taking around the same amount of time from Norman Park.
