Scanner says one person is hurt. You can get an updated view of the scene – for as long as SDOT keeps the camera zoomed in – in the top left quadrant of our featured cameras, above.
Also, SDOT says the signal at Delridge and Thistle is out and a crew is on the way.

POTHOLE PALOOZA: We’ve been talking about road woes for a long time here, including reminders about the city’s pothole-reporting/-repairing system, but SDOT says it’s launching an “aggressive” repair campaign starting next week, so it REALLY wants to hear from you. Here’s the story.
NO-PARKING TIMES EXPANDING IN FERRY LANE: As reported here yesterday, signs are expected to go up today changing the 3-7 pm weekday “no parking” rules in the ferry-waiting lane on southbound Fauntleroy Way to 2-7 pm.
