Creating a Safe, Comfortable Terminal Serving Over 600,000 Passengers Per Year
King County Water Taxi
At the south edge of Colman Dock, the Marine Division of the King County Department of Transportation operates two water taxi routes to West Seattle and Vashon Island, an affordable public service that will eventually expand to Kitsap County and Ballard. Part of the Multimodal Terminal project being completed by Hoffman, the new Water Taxi and Passenger-Only Ferry Facility provides a covered waiting area for travelers.
This new terminal has a passenger capacity to hold 500 passengers under cover and out of the weather. An elevated walkway provides safe access to restrooms located in the new Washington State Ferry terminal and to the elevated walkway to the intersection of 1st Ave and Marion St. allowing passengers to walk from downtown Seattle to the passenger only ferry terminal without having to cross city streets
