MUKILTEO — A bent ramp briefly closed the Mukilteo ferry dock Monday afternoon.

Due to damage, temporary limits on loading lanes and heavy-weight vehicles continued through the afternoon.

It’s not clear what caused the damage, Washington State Ferries spokesman Ian Sterling said. Officials are reviewing video.

The trouble started about 12:30 p.m. The dock reopened with restrictions by 12:55 p.m. As of 5 p.m., ongoing delays were about 30 minutes long. Restrictions had been lifted, Sterling said.
