6:12 AM: It’s Thursday, January 21st, the 304th morning without the West Seattle Bridge.
ROAD (ETC.) WORK
Low bridge closure – SDOT plans to close the low bridge 8 am-1 pm Saturday to all but emergency vehicles, so it can be inspected. Here are the bus-reroute plans:
Delridge project – The SW Thistle closure continues between Delridge and 20th. Here’s what else is in this week’s plan.
California and Myrtle – The sewer-repair project continues – if driving/riding on California, watch out for the bumps, even though the grade has been improved.
Sylvan Way work – Also be aware of the bumps left after last weekend’s drainage work until permanent road repairs are done.
CHECK TRAFFIC BEFORE YOU GO
Low Bridge: Second week for automated enforcement cameras, while restrictions are in effect 5 am-9 pm daily. Here’s a bridge view:

Going through South Park? Don’t speed. (Same goes for all the other detour-route neighborhoods, both the arterials and neighborhood streets!)
