TRAFFIC NOTES

-Watch out for standing water on the streets and bridges; we had one late-late-night report of it on the westbound bridge, especially on the exit to Admiral. If you encounter an especially bad spot, report it to SDOT at 206-386-1218.

Halloween: Trick-or-treaters will be out tonight, as will visitors at neighborhood attractions. Also note that the city has granted some block-party permits; we’ve been notified of one, California SW between 102nd and 104th, 6-10 pm.

Two continuing closures: The outer southbound lane on West Marginal Way between 17th SW and the Duwamish Longhouse … The east end of Sylvan Way.

TRANSIT STATUS

Metro buses are on their regular schedules; watch @kcmetroalerts for trip cancellations/reroute alerts.

-Still a 2-boat schedule for WSF’s Triangle Route (check here for alerts/updates).

-The West Seattle Water Taxi is on its fall/winter schedule (still daily, all dayparts, but no late Friday/Saturday runs).

    Down by Costco on 4th Ave. lots of standing water in the right hand lane although it looks like it goes almost all the way cross to the left hand lane as well. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
