FOLLOWUP: What’s next for Admiral Way Bridge project, plus photos

Another update from SDOT on what’s next for the Admiral Way Bridge seismic-strengthening project:

Admiral Way SW will return to one lane in each direction this weekend. Over the next several months, there may sometimes be brief periods in which more lanes are open as crews shift between working on different parts of the bridge.

We are continuing to make good progress on construction. Here are some photos showing the work in progress:

Those photos are from the underside of the bridge, over Fairmount Ravine, where Fairmount Avenue remains fully closed to traffic until the project is done, now projected for summer.

    I thought when this project started they were planning to be done in January.

      In our previous report, SDOT said the timeline stretched because they added painting.

    WSB do you know if Fairmount Ave will be fully closed to cyclists and pedestrians as well? Thanks for the update on this.

    Wait, there are stairs?  Have I been blind to them, or were they overgrown the point of being hidden?  I’ve lived at the top of the ravine for 15 plus years and never noticed them.  Help me solve the mystery, please.

      Those are temp stairs for the work crew.

    Wow! Since the ravine has been closed, I had no idea what a massive project this was. No wonder its taken so long.

    I would love to see those stairs made permanant

    Are they planning on resurfacing the bridge? It’s quite chewed up and I thought I read that was in the plan.

    Admiral Dad – agreed a permanent staircase would be nice to have.  This would provide a quicker route to and from the Water Taxi and the waterfront.

Sorry, comment time is over.
