Ana/SJs: Coming in 2027: Terminal closures during transfer span construction
Posted Oct 15, 9:07 AM

In early 2027, we’ll replace the major mechanical and electrical systems of the vehicle transfer span at our Anacortes, Lopez, and Orcas terminals. The transfer span is the part of the terminal dock that raises and lowers to meet the ferry to allow vehicles to drive on and off.  What to expect in early 2027 during terminal construction  Anacortes single slip operations, Monday–Friday, Feb. 22–26  Orcas Island 48-hour closure, Tuesday and Wednesday, March 9–10  Lopez Island 48-hour closure, Tuesday and Wednesday, March 16–17  Ferries will run on their regular schedules but will not stop at Orcas or Lopez during the closure dates. Vehicle reservations will not be available for Orcas and Lopez sailings on the days those terminals are closed. We do not expect Anacortes reservations to be impacted.  Please visit the project webpage for more information. We’ll also keep you updated on this project through additional rider alerts, the WSF Weekly email, and social media.
