The new Mukilteo Multimodal Ferry Terminal in Washington State opened in December 2020 and replaced the seismically vulnerable ferry terminal located less than half a mile southwest that was built in 1957. The new terminal was designed to better serve the Mukilteo-Clinton ferry route that moves more than two million vehicles and nearly four million riders annually between Whidbey Island and the Seattle-Everett area. Liquefiable site conditions and lateral spreading concerns required close coordination between structural and geotechnical engineering disciplines to develop suitable design solutions. The paper primarily focuses on various design concepts identified and assessed through interactive collaboration between structural and geotechnical engineering disciplines before selecting the design solutions finally adopted for construction.
