Skagit Transit to provide service on Guemes Island during annual haul-out
SKAGIT COUNTY - The annual
Guemes Island Ferry haul-out will occur October 4 through October 19, 2010.
During this time, ferry ridership will be affected. As a result, Skagit Transit
will provide a bus on Guemes Island to assist with transportation.
To access this service, call (360) 770-0310 at least one hour before your requested
pick-up time. If the bus driver does not answer immediately, call the Dispatcher
at (360) 757-4433, press 1, and ask for Dispatch. This phone number will be
posted in various locations during the haul-out.
Guemes Island Skagit Transit bus operating hours:
- Monday - Saturday
7:00am - 11:30am and 12:30pm - 6:15pm
- Sunday 8:30am - 11:30am and 12:30pm - 5:45pm
This service is intended
to provide transportation to and from the Guemes ferry parking lot only and
the bus will be transiting only the main roads. This means that the bus will
pick up and drop off from the main road nearest your home and take you to/from
the ferry parking lot.
For those with mobility limitations in need of pick-up and drop-off from individual
driveways, or from the parking lot in Anacortes, call Skagit Transit.
Please contact Interim Ferry Manager Rachel Beck at (360) 333-1496 with any
questions related to the haul-out.
