Bill seeks to improve ferry reliability with a work group [View all]
OLYMPIA — As a lifelong ferry rider, state Rep. Greg Nance, D-Bainbridge Island, said the ferries used to be dependable. Now, reliability is one of the biggest complaints he hears from constituents.
Nance wants to pass a bill to evaluate the current ferry system and seek improvement. Chronic underfunding of the system is the primary reason for unreliability, he said.
House Bill 2497 would create the Washington State Ferries 75 Work Group, a reference to Washington State Ferries’ 75th anniversary in 2026.
In the past year, ferry riders have faced unprecedented cancellations and delays.
