BRIDGES AND DETOUR ROUTES

593rd morning without the West Seattle Bridge. Here are views of other bridges and routes:

Low Bridge: After its two-hour closure Wednesday morning, it had trouble again Wednesday night, but so far that’s only supposed to affect maritime traffic.

Meantime – automated enforcement cameras remain in use; restrictions are in effect 5 am-9 pm daily – except weekends; the bridge is open to all until 8 am Saturday and Sunday mornings. (Access applications are available here for some categories of drivers.)

The 1st Avenue South Bridge (map):

South Park Bridge:

West Marginal Way at Highland Park Way:

Highland Park Way/Holden:

The 5-way intersection (Spokane/West Marginal/Delridge/Chelan):

Are movable bridges opening for boats or barges? The @SDOTBridges Twitter feed is working again; 1st Ave. South Bridge openings are also tweeted on @wsdot_traffic.

See all local traffic cams here; locally relevant cameras are also on this WSB page.
