— from Washington State Ferries —

Please be advised of several changes to the fares on Washington State Ferries (WSF):

The last day of the summer peak season surcharge for single vehicle fares is Saturday, September 30. On Sunday, October 1, single vehicle fares will return to their non-peak rates. Passenger fares and multi-ride products are not affected by the peak season changes.

In addition, general fare increases and policy changes will take effect on Sunday, October 1.

Changes include:

• 2.9 percent fare increase for small and standard sized vehicles

• 0.8 percent to 1.8 percent fare increase for oversized vehicles (22 feet and longer), depending on vehicle size

• 2.1 percent fare increase for passengers

• Passengers who bring bicycles with trailers will see an increase as they begin paying the motorcycle/driver (stowage) rate instead of the combined passenger fare with bicycle surcharge. Bicyclists towing other kinds of trailers will continue to pay the combined passenger fare with bicycle surcharge.
