FERRY ALERT UPDATE: Triangle Route will have 2-boat service restored tonight

| Fauntleroy | Transportation | West Seattle news

5;26 PM: After being out of service all day with engine issues, leaving the Fauntleroy-Vashon-Southworth run with one boat, M/V Issaquah is out on sea trials right now. Washington State Ferries says that if it passes, it’ll be returned to service on the Triangle Route. If not, M/V Sealth will be moved to the run sometime tonight; it’s currently at Eagle Harbor, the WSF maintenance facility on Bainbridge Island. We’ll update when there’s a decision.

7:15 PM: WSF’s David Sowers just announced in the Community Advisory Group that Issaquah is returning to service.

I was excited for a moment because I thought we were going back up to three boats. Wsf really needs to get it together this route was not designed to run with so few boats

Jim. WSF would LOVE to have more boats and employees. You just need to lobby Olympia to raise revenue/allocate funds from some other program to pay for them. As far as employees you can always lobby the government to force people to go to work for WSF.

Sorry, comment time is over.
