County and City Officials from WSF-served Communities,
Good morning.
With hazardous road conditions, WSF vessel crews and terminal staffs have had difficulty getting to work, affecting service on several routes. We’ve implemented a severe weather schedule,
reducing service on most routes, combining crews to keep vessels in service. This allows us to remain a link for emergency services and essential workers.
The affected routes and beginnings of service restoration are:
* Service on the Seattle/Bremerton route suspended until the 10am sailing from Seattle.
* Service on the Port Townsend/Coupeville route was suspended until the 8am sailing from Port Townsend.
* One-boat service on Seattle/Bainbridge, Clinton/Mukilteo, and Edmonds/Kingston.
* Initial one-boat service on the Fauntleroy/Southworth/Vashon route, with two-boat service restored at 7.55am.
* Service on the Anacortes/San Juan Islands routes and Pt. Defiance/Tahlequah operated normally.
We understand the importance of our service, especially as customers travel for the holiday weekend. With safety – of passengers and employees – always our number one priority, this
schedule allows those who must travel to do so. We’re appreciative for the efforts colleagues have made to provide service this morning and appreciate passengers’ patience with current
sailing schedules.
Best,
John
