6:03 AM: Good morning! It’s Thursday, August 22.

WEATHER + SUNRISE/SUNSET TIMES

Showers possible, high in upper 60s. Today’s sunrise will be at 6:15 am, while sunset will be at 8:07 pm.

SPOKANE ST. VIADUCT CLOSURES, AND OTHER ROAD WORK

The Spokane Street Viaduct resurfacing project continues. Here’s the tentative plan for the rest of the week – including for overnight tonight, same as last night – eastbound left lanes are expected to close 7 pm-6 am, which means the eastbound exits to 1st and 4th would stay open.

*The Admiral Way Bridge seismic project is in progress. Fairmount Avenue is closed under the bridge. Starting next week, the north half of the bridge will close, so the south half will carry traffic both ways temporarily. (That’s what the “Traffic Revision August 26” portable signs are about.)

*The Delridge pedestrian-bridge earthquake-safety project also continues, with narrowing at Delridge/Oregon.

*The East Marginal Way S. project continues, with a temporary routing change for bicycle riders.

*Beach Drive: Gas-pipeline work continues at spots along the southern stretch. Watch for no-parking zones and steel plates (many on northbound side right now), plus flaggers.
