Yikes! Tanker truck on its side. 2 lanes of SB I-5 are blocked, and the ramp from EB WSB to SB I-5. Use alt routes. pic.twitter.com/g8ulqVtXyK

8:42 PM: A tanker truck is on its side on southbound I-5 just south of the West Seattle Bridge, so the offramp is closed. Updates as we get them.
9:29 PM: From the State Patrol:
No injuries. A passenger car was also involved. That driver was arrested for DUI. Expect lane closures for several hours.

If you want to check the eastbound-bridge-to-southbound-I-5 ramp status between our updates, use the city’s travelers-info map, and choose, on the lower right, live video/SODO/6th & Spokane.
12:49 AM: Still closed – no estimate for reopening, WSDOT says.
ADDED EARLY SATURDAY: Per WSDOT’s tweet, the ramp (and all I-5 lanes) reopened just before 1:30 am.
