Good morning! Quiet on the roads here and beyond so far.
TRAFFIC NOTES: No major West Seattle road work announced for this week. SODO/Pioneer Square drivers/riders, take note that the Mariners are home all week (7:10 pm game tonight).
7:18 AM – ‘LOW BRIDGE’ ALERT: Via scanner – what the dispatcher described as a “disabled tractor-trailer” on the westbound low bridge.
7:44 AM: That’s clear now, according to SDOT.
Very slow on low bridge east bound too. Double container rig stopped westbound approaching “high” rise.
I just saw one of those big honkin’ tractor-trailer-size tow trucks go up there, and they still had the east approach (westbound) flared off and nothing was coming down the other way either…. he’s gonna be a few.
I came down the hill on Olsen toward 509 about an hour ago and the right lane was completely blocked by an accident. There were a couple ambulances and cops, and the cars hadn’t been moved yet. It looked like they may have been getting ready to clear it, so it could be gone now.
mustache patrol @ top of bridge lasering eastbound. HORRIBLE place for a speed trap. he was maybe 4″ off the fog line…. one truck with wide mirrors and he’s gettin some chin music to go with that donut duster….
Sorry, comment time is over.
