Traffic alert: Truck trouble on westbound bridge

| Transportation | West Seattle news

(Thanks to Dan Murphy for the photo)
12:07 PM: Thanks to everyone who has e-mailed and called with the tip: Beware of the westbound West Seattle Bridge- a truck has apparently lost some of what it was carrying and traffic is backed up. This is reported to be on the high bridge, just past Delridge exit.

1:38 PM NOTE: Per comment, it appears to have cleared. (Again, we appreciate the tips – apparently no injuries here, so it was never on the 911 log – call or text 206-293-6302 around the clock if you see/hear breaking news.)

I am glad to hear that it wasn’t serious, we saw the backup from the on-ramp to go eastbound around 11:45 am.

It was truck pulling a flatbed trailer with a tractor on the back. The tractor somehow fell off the trailer and landed on it’s side in the right hand lanes.

Sorry, comment time is over.
