In less than two hours, state and local leaders will preside at a ceremonial groundbreaking for the next major Alaskan Way Viaduct project – yearlong work to relocate nearby electrical lines, to get ready for the South End replacement. State Transportation Secretary Paula Hammond and City Light Superintendent Jorge Carrasco are scheduled to participate in the event along the Sodo end of The Viaduct. We’ll be there too. Note that this project is not expected to have many traffic effects, since it’s happening mostly on nearby private property. Lots going on with the AWV, though, including another state open house here in West Seattle, 5:30-7:30 pm at Fauntleroy Church next Tuesday; the focus: getting your thoughts on what should replace its Central Waterfront section (here are the so-called “options” currently under review).
