    WSB. Monday’s bridge update said the bridge would be repaved. Is that “spot” paving or are they going end to end-35th to I5(including on/off ramps)?? Also, did they make any promises to give more frequents updates-monthly would be nice.

    Stalled car north bound 1st Ave Bridge as of 715am.  Right lane.  Before Michigan exit.

    I know a lot of people have driven on 26th Ave. SW since they’ve opened both directions, what do you all think of the work that was done??? Don’t think it’s just my car but NB is like a roller coaster! /\/\/\/\/\/\/\

      I’ve noticed, but it is so much better, and now longer a slalom course of new and surprising potholes! (that was much worse).  There is a stretch of new conc on NB Delridge (before Holden) that is a lot more roller-coastery for me.

    SB busses on SR 99 now have straight shot to the low level bridge, much faster.  They finally removed the barricades that had forced a merge!

Sorry, comment time is over.
