Subject: Learn about upcoming construction at Colman Dock

 

As you may know, later this summer, Washington State Ferries will start
major construction on our projec
<https://www.wsdot.wa.gov/projects/ferries/colmanmultimodalterminal/> t to
replace the old and seismically-vulnerable parts of our flagship ferry
terminal on Seattle's waterfront. Construction is expected to continue
through early 2023 and the terminal will remain open throughout
construction. The end result will be a safe, operational and multimodal
facility for the more than 9 million people who rely on the critical
transportation link Colman Dock provides across Puget Sound each year.

 

Ahead of major construction, we are inviting the public to learn more
through upcoming outreach events
<https://www.wsdot.wa.gov/NR/rdonlyres/C6756344-C666-44EE-A9D8-32A746F2BA38/
0/2017_0607_ColmanDockOutreachPoster_final.pdf>  in Seattle and the Kitsap
Peninsula and via an online open house
<https://colmandockproject.participate.online/>  available today through
July 14. We are sharing information about what to expect during
construction, and seeking feedback on proposed changes to WSF's Bremerton
and Bainbridge Island sailing schedules that will start in January 2018. 

 

To get ready for major construction, crews are already completing some work
on the dock, and vehicle access to Colman Dock will change as soon as the
week of June 26. Please see the ferry access handout

We hope to see you at one of our outreach events, and encourage you to share
this flyer

organizations to help us spread the word.
