State Ferries Announces Timeline for Planned Route Cancellations
Riders of the Mukilteo-Clinton ferry route will need to plan ahead for a series of cancellations early next year.
This week, Washington State Ferries announced a rough timeline for construction work affecting the route. The Mukilteo terminal’s west wing wall, damaged in 2022 from a rough landing, will be repaired and repositioned.
Due to the terminal having only one slip, ferries can’t run while repairs are being made. A crane will be moved into the slip to drive piles deeper into the sea floor.
- Nine weekdays of midday sailing cancellations are likely to occur in January and February.
- The last morning sailings will be the 8:30 a.m.
- Weather could change this schedule as good visibility is needed, and work must stop if a protected marine mammal is spotted.
No specific comment from Washington State Ferries was provided.
