Reader view We need better signage for ferry riders

Residents of Edmonds are raising concerns about the inadequate signage for ferry traffic, which complicates navigation for newcomers. Many drivers, unfamiliar with the area, often get lost due to confusing signs and blocked routes. Local residents frequently assist lost drivers, showcasing the shortcomings of the current infrastructure. Suggested improvements include clearer, consistent signage that unambiguously directs traffic to the Kingston Ferry. Additionally, well-marked detours during busy times could enhance safety and reduce confusion.

A recent observation noted that current signage often blends into the background, making it difficult for drivers to read quickly. Enhancing these elements is crucial for improving visitor experience and safety in the city.
