About this crossing
To stop drivers cutting into the Kingston ferry queue, WSF runs an automated boarding-pass system on SR 104 at busy times. Drivers take a pass from a dispenser before joining the line, wait for a green signal to move down to the tollbooths, and need a fresh pass if they pull out; the pass is not a ticket. Foot passengers ride free in this direction, the round-trip passenger fare being collected at Edmonds. Anyone on foot whose destination is central Seattle rather than Edmonds can board Kitsap Transit's passenger-only fast ferry at Kingston instead, a crossing of about 40 minutes. The WSF boat takes 30 minutes and lands beside the Edmonds station used by Sounder commuter trains and Amtrak.
