Breakwater Preservation at Port of Edmonds

The Port of Edmonds will extend the life of its mid-marina breakwater, thanks to funding from the Washington state capital budget. While a long-term solution is developed, the $412,000 in state funding will be used to provide temporary relief to the aging structure that plays an integral part in protecting the marina. The funding will help replace rotten wood lagging, install a new waler and install new steel sheet piling, all of which will add 10 to 12 years of extended service life.

“We are incredibly grateful to the Legislature for recognizing the importance of this project to our community, local economy and the broader Puget Sound region,” said Port Commission President David Preston. “This targeted investment ensures continued safe operations at the marina and buys us critical time to plan for a full replacement.”

The Port of Edmonds provides essential water access to the community for both commercial and recreational boaters.
