New Mukilteo ferry terminal has opened to passengers

For 63 years, the Mukilteo ferry terminal has served passengers heading back and forth to Whidbey Island. The old terminal closed early Tuesday morning, and the new terminal opened hours later.
The old terminal did its job, but it just can’t properly handle the second busiest ferry run in the state anymore. More than 4 million people went through this terminal last year, and there were just tiny bathrooms, which most people didn’t even realize were there. Walk-on passengers had to board the ferries on the same ramp as the cars.
