FIRST REPORT, 2:40 PM: As of just before 2:30, the low bridge is out of commission because of a “technical malfunction,” per SDOT. Updates as we get them.

2:59 PM: SDOT says a crew is on the way.

3:50 PM: Just walked out onto the bridge. SDOT truck visible beneath it but crew not in sight.

Bridge is stuck “closed”; no perceptible gap in the deck. Some bicyclists are choosing to squeeze through gap in gates and cross anyway; alternatives are Water Taxi, C Line, or 1st Ave S Bridge.

4:21 PM: SDOT says the low bridge is now working again, after about an hour and a half.
