7:20 AM: We’ve noticed the 35th/Fauntleroy blinking red (in other words, akin to a four-way-stop sign) now and then in recent days, but this is the first time we’ve heard of it happening during the morning commute – and we’re getting reports it’s backing up access to the bridge. If you use that access point, you might consider heading north on 35th instead, which has an access lane that doesn’t require going through the signal. Or, use the onramps reachable via Admiral or Avalon, or Delridge.
8:01 AM: We saw a city worker on scene about 15 minutes ago. Getting on the bridge via northbound 35th was quick, by the way. Will update whenever we get word it’s fixed.
8:02 AM: Todd says it’s fixed.
8:36 AM: We have sent a crew by for a firsthand look, and they too confirm it’s working now. We have a question out to SDOT inquiring why, since it was broken last night, it wasn’t fixed before morning. Whatever we find out, we’ll add here later.
