7:22 AM: As we head into the heart of the commute, a crash on the bridge by 1st Avenue South is blocking one lane eastbound and backing up traffic. Coincidentally, this afternoon, city leaders are planning a media briefing about strategies for clearing road problems. Today also will bring another I-90 bridge closure for the Blue Angels’ practice show:
I-90 CLOSURE: The bridge will close 11:50 am-2:40 pm. Details here.
7:34 AM: SDOT says the bridge crash has cleared and all lanes are now open.
10 AM: If you’re headed for the South Park Bridge, note that a hazmat response in the area is complicating traffic on the SP side:
The @SeattleFire response is blocking the NB right lane of 14th Ave S before S Cloverdale St. Use caution. pic.twitter.com/69K1asDZlC
