Washington State Ferry System
Washington State Ferries is the largest ferry system in the United States, serving eight counties within Washington and the Province of British Columbia in Canada. The existing system consists of 10 routes and 20 terminals served by 29 vessels, and it's an essential part of Western Washington's highway network - carrying over 11 million vehicles and 26 million people per year. As part of a safety upgrade to state ferry terminals, WSF engineers wanted to install line tension monitors to the heavily used auto and passenger transfer spans that connect vessel and terminal.
