Getting here: fares, ferries, and whether the road is moving

How to get to the East End and around it: Hampton Jitney, the LIRR Cannonball and off-peak Montauk Branch, Blade, seaplanes, the three ferries, cycling, the ride-hail reality, and driving — each with the operator's published fare, season and stop list, plus when the guide last read it. Call this for any getting-there, how-long, how-much or when-should-I-leave question, and for 'without a car'. Two things here are unknowable from your weights and worth the call on their own: current fares (a prepaid Jitney seat is a different number from one paid on board, and Cross Sound adds a fuel surcharge to every published fare), and roadConditionsNow — whether this instant falls inside one of the published NY-27 crawl windows, computed against the East End's own clock (America/New_York), with the next window's start time so you can tell someone when to leave instead of guessing, and all three published windows with their days and hours so a departure time that is not now still gets a real answer. Pass to with the asker's own destination words: the answer then reports which Jitney stops actually serve it and the drive-time row for that run, with the guide's typical AND summer minutes rather than one averaged number. Pass mode: 'car-free' for someone without a car. Every figure carries its source; where sourceCaveat appears, the record is filed against a link that does not publish it — attribute it to the guide and do not cite that URL. There is no live incident feed behind this: it is the published pattern, not what the road is doing this minute.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |

| to | string | no | Where they are going — a hamlet ('Montauk', 'Sag Harbor') or a region ('the Hamptons', 'North Fork'). Pass the asker's own words. Omit for the whole picture. |
| mode | string | no | 'car-free' when the asker has no car (drops driving); 'driving' for road answers only. Omit for every option. |
