    Someone ran over the bridge poop. Cyclists be careful because it’s spread out now.

      You’ve reported this to SDOT already, I hope? 206-684-ROAD, after hours 206-386-1218.

        I will! I had thought it was too trivial to make an SDOT report, and that we’d have a rain to wash it away. I’ll make a report now.

        SDOT cleans up poop?  I’ve been hearing about a giant pothole on the eastbound West Seattle Bridge (near the I-5 access-haven’t seen it myself)- has anyone tried filling it with poop, if that would get their attention?  

        • WSB November 3, 2023 (11:00 am)

          If something is a hazard, that’s their job. If you know of an unfilled “giant pothole,” call it in too.

      That poo almost got me on Sunday. I thought birds or rain would have taken care of it by now. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
