Emergency Transportation Services

Follow-up Survey: San Juan County Marine Transportation Services

After 10 weeks of service, the County’s Marine Transportation Services Pilot Project is complete! These services included emergency barge and foot-passenger transportation during disruptions to Washington State Ferry (WSF) service as well as travel to and from the mainland (Anacortes) on a daily basis. Each of these services was provided at no cost to the passengers, subsidized by the County’s emergency funding awarded by the Governor’s Office.

The County is interested in your experiences, feedback, and ideas! This 10-minute follow-up survey will help us evaluate the project and consider adjustments for potential future services.
