DELRIDGE PROJECT: Overnight work ahead, and what to expect next week

| Delridge | West Seattle news | West Seattle traffic alerts

The Delridge project paving the way for the RapidRide H Line conversion continues, and SDOT has just sent highlights of what’s ahead in the next week:

In general, roadway demolition and paving will continue in Zone A of the project. We are also preparing for some overnight work at SW Brandon St and SW Juneau St beginning as early as the week of September 14. We are planning this work now and a more solidified date will be shared next week.

In addition to that work, we will resume active construction near the Longfellow Creek Green Space again (near the 24th Ave SW/SW Graham St area on Delridge Way SW) next week.

We’ve also recently reopened SW Hudson St to through traffic.

We will not be working on September 7 in observance of Labor Day.

For zone-by-zone specifics on the week ahead, see the full update here.

I am a little confused. It says that for this work starting on 9/14 that the eastside of Brandon may be temp closed. It was closed yesterday and today. There are already two points closed for stagging (West side Brandon & puget Blvd) as well as other side streets still closed so an acurate schedule would be nice. Was curious if anyone has ever recieved the text alerts? Better luck with email updates?

We get the texts too. Most of the time only one per week, about the same time as the email alert on Fridays. The one from last week doesn’t say anything different. However, SDOT has been a bit off its announced schedule this week.- the Admiral sinkhole work they told us over the weekend would happen yesterday and today has yet to start. I have a question out about it but if I had to guess, I’d say the air-quality alert might be a factor.

  Thanks for the reply. I have not received a single text. Was hoping it would be more detailed. Like this is what’s happening on your block kind of thing. Have never received a single one though. Hopefully better luck with email. Thanks for posting what’s going on

    You might try re-registering. They sent another one today with a reminder of the overnight work at Brandon/Delridge starting tonight. I got it at 3 pm.

WSB. I came down Admiral today at @12:30. SDOT crews were working on paving.

We went through hours later. No change in the sinkhole – still covered with a steel plate and asphalt around its edges. I got an SDOT explanation this evening, will include it in the morning traffic watch.

Sorry, comment time is over.
