5:53 AM: 29th morning without the high-rise West Seattle Bridge. A City Council briefing on Monday mostly recapped what was announced last week, as well as reiterating low-bridge restrictions.
For general traffic, the main route across the Duwamish River is the 1st Avenue South Bridge (map) – that’s also the main way to get to I-5, exiting at Michigan.
The other option is the South Park Bridge (map), which drops you onto East Marginal Way one mile south of the north end of the 1st Ave. South Bridge.
Check the @SDOTBridges Twitter feed to see if a bridge is opening for marine traffic.
ROAD WORK ALERT: Striping work continues this week in the 35th/Avalon/Alaska project zone.
TRANSIT ALERTS:
Metro’s third round of service cuts is in effect – details here. The Water Taxi continues its reduced schedule.
