    Anyone know when they are going to finish painting the lines on Admiral Way since they resurfacing looks complete? Also there are no lines where we all merge together from Avalon and Admiral Way traffic to the on-ramp.

    There’s an inconsistency re: bridge lane closures. This post mentions it closing tonight (Tues.) but the press release on your other page mentions Wed. night/Thurs. morning. May want to correct/clarify. Thx!

    So the bridge will not be closed tonight Tuesday Oct. 18th?

      The bridge was not scheduled for closure tonight. Lane closures, as noted here and in the original notice I published last night.The actual westbound full closure was Wednesday night. That’s all been canceled for now, according to SDOT.

Sorry, comment time is over.
