UPDATE: West Seattle Bridge crash cleared after 2 hours, including jersey-barrier repair

2:30 PM: A crash on the westbound side of the west end of the West Seattle Bridge is affecting EB traffic too because of jersey-barrier displacement. SDOT is on scene.

3:40 PM: Still one lane blocked each way, according to the live camera accessible via the city map.

4:18 PM: Still working on the jersey barrier.

4:28 PM: SDOT has just cleared the scene and it’s now back to normal both ways. Apologies but we don’t have any information about whether anyone was hurt in the crash itself – from the incident log, it doesn’t appear anyone was transported by medic unit, so if there were injuries, they weren’t major.

      Sorry, I corrected myself on a tweet or some other form of communication making the same mistake earlier – but apparently didn’t catch this – fixing.

    That jersey barrier gets “pushed” often. I don’t remember a time when that area had so many “accidents”. I wonder if that’s why they put a metal guard rail up recently on the westbound side (partly visible in this photo ).

    We passed the accident before emergency vehicles arrived.  It appeared that everyone was okay.

Sorry, comment time is over.
