According to the MTA , there will be Roosevelt Island F Train service to and from Manhattan this weekend.

R train service too.

The Roosevelt Island Operating Corp (RIOC) adds:

While we continue to follow social distancing and align our operations with
New York Forward guidance, we also continue to incrementally increase the
number of passengers permitted on the Tram. Tram capacity will increase on
Monday, March 8th, from 35 to 55 passengers per cabin, and we will continue to
assess and gradually increase ridership in phases. We understand the need for
this mode of transportation, however, the health and safety of our riders and
operators are our priority. We appreciate your cooperation.

Here’s the NYC Ferry Roosevelt Island Astoria Route Schedule which extends to East 90th street on the Upper East Side.
