Commute by Ferry or Water Taxi

Commute by ferry or water taxi

What employers can do to support commuting by ferry:

  • Help employees plan routes that use the Washington State Ferry or the King County Water Taxi
  • Offer employees some flexibility in start and quit times
  • Help employees make the connection between the ferry terminal and work (or home) by providing a VanShare or information on bus routes.
  • Allow employees to use pre-tax income to purchase ferry passes
  • Provide full or partial subsidy for cost of monthly or annual ferry pass
  • Where there is a charge for parking, allow employees who commute by ferry to drive and park for free one or two days each month for personal appointments
  • Provide on-site amenities such as lunch facilities and postal services
