BRIDGE CLOSURE ALERT: Fauntleroy Expressway end of West Seattle Bridge to be closed late Friday night-early Saturday

Just announced by SDOT:

SDOT advises travelers that crews will close a portion of the West Seattle Bridge (Fauntleroy Expressway) in both directions to replace jersey barriers on Friday night, November 10 through Saturday morning, November 11.

From 11:59 p.m. on Friday, November 10, through 7 a.m. on Saturday, November 11, travelers can expect:

*Both directions of the West Seattle Bridge (Fauntleroy Expressway) will be closed between 35th Ave SW and SW Admiral Way

*Signed detours will be posted:

*Eastbound traffic will be detoured via SW Avalon Way to SW Spokane St to the West Seattle Bridge

*Westbound traffic will be detoured via Harbor Ave SW to SW Avalon Way

The West Seattle Bridge is scheduled to reopen by 7 a.m. on Saturday.

As mentioned previously in our traffic/transportation coverage, overnight Friday night-Saturday morning also will bring a closure of the Battery Street Tunnel at the north end of the Alaskan Way Viaduct, because of paving-related work above the tunnel.

    Yeah, those jersey barriers sure have taken a beating this year!

    Another thing I noticed today: all the water drains on the eastbound section from 35th to near the bottom were totally clogged and backed up.

Sorry, comment time is over.
