EBDG picked for ferry design

Seattle-based Elliott Bay Design Group was selected by the Texas Department of Transportation’s Corpus Christi District to prepare a design for a 28-car ferry for service between Port Aransas and Harbor Island. This short route forms the continuation of Texas state Highway 361 across the Corpus Christi Channel.

This multi-phased design contract was awarded in January with the first part being a design study report. The report included a hull and superstructure configuration study, propulsion and steering configuration study, propulsion and steering cost study and a capital cost study. With the first phase complete, EBDG has moved on to the contract design which is expected to wrap up in October.
