The information about the ORCA smart card mentions seven transit agencies, including the ferries. Does that mean the U-PASS will include the ferries?
The smart chip in the Husky Card will be used by the UW to provide U-PASS unlimited access to bus service. The six transit agencies party to the ORCA project are King County Metro, Community Transit, Sound Transit, Pierce Transit, Kitsap Transit and Everett Transit. The UW would like to include all six agencies in the U-PASS product, but this will be determined through future negotiations. Ferries will not be part of the standard U-PASS product.
