Ferry-geddon: Sailings from Mukilteo, Edmonds cut in half
MUKILTEO — Prepare to get ferry frustrated.
Starting Saturday, service will go to one boat instead of two on the busy Edmonds-Kingston and Mukilteo-Clinton routes due to a lack of workers.
Officials with Washington State Ferries and Gov. Jay Inslee said the slashed schedule affecting routes statewide is temporary, but didn’t define how long temporary is.
They blame crew shortages on an aging workforce, COVID-19 cases, quarantines and fewer skilled workers.
