    Speaking of utility crews, do you know if SCL and others will be working in the 8600 (or thereabouts) block of Delridge Way SW again today?  Yesterday afternoon, around 4:30/5pm or so, it created quite the back – up in both directions.  (only one lane was available for travel- I’d assume it was an emergency? Otherwise, I’d imagine they would limit parking on the opposite side of the street, and use that lane for travel instead)

Sorry, comment time is over.
