Sign a Petition for Bus Service at Shilshole

Posted on by

With limited parking in the marina and on the street during busy weekends; with high school kids having to walk 1.2 miles to the nearest bus stop in the dark in winter months; and with the city’s growing congestion and expense for parking-more people would like to downsize a vehicle and/or ride a bus if they could get to where they need to go without using a car!

Here’s your chance to show Metro that there is indeed interest for bus service here at Shilshole!  Please stop by Dockside Solutions in the Marina Office building to sign a petition for bus service.

Parking during Construction this year

Posted on by

The Port has started construction on the S End restrooms (M-1) and as the other restrooms/laundry, Dukes restaurant and paving projects get started, there will be disruptions to our parking.  The Port reminds us to:

  • have the current (2018) parking permit visible in your car and have your guests and your extra vehicle park in the non-permit areas
  • make sure your car tabs are current and wont expire while you are out cruising/travelling-especially this summer!  There have been stolen/abandoned cars left in the parking lot so the Port will tow cars with expired tabs!
  • to contact the marina office if you will be gone for more than 2 weeks so they can make sure you are not parked in an area that will be needed for construction
  • More Shilshole parking info can be found here

Please share this with your dockmates and guests so no one is inconvenienced.  Thanks.

Coast Guard seeks mariner input for Pacific Seacoast study

Posted on by

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Coast Guard is seeking input from mariners for a study of navigation requirements in the Pacific Seacoast System.

The Waterways Analysis and Management System (WAMS) study will review the short range Aids to Navigation (ATON) system that covers American waterways from the Canadian border to the Mexican border and around Alaska, Hawaii and the Marianas Islands.

Interested mariners and maritime stakeholders can provide input by taking the survey at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/PacSeacoastWAMS

The survey will be available until March 31, 2018.

In addition to the survey input, the system-wide study will cover international requirements, environmental concerns, user capabilities, available technology and available resources.
