Passengers aboard a RapidRide C-Line bus are reporting possible injuries after a collision at 35th/Avalon, No visual so far but police say they’re blocking eastbound Avalon at the scene, and they’re looking for a hit-run driver who might have caused the crash, possibly after leaving an apartment/condo garage nearby.

4:24 PM: Thanks for the tips. The West Seattle low bridge is malfunctioning again; one reader who’s been waiting says they were told it could be a “few minutes or few hours” – the gates aren’t working. So use an alternate route for now (we know, easier said than done if you’re using human-powered transportation).

6:14 PM: Still not fixed, after more than two hours.

8:43 PM: Just checked the camera for the first time in a while. The bridge is back in service. We’ll follow up with SDOT.

11:47 PM: Police are blocking Admiral at Olga because of what’s described as a one-car crash on the embankment. No visual, and no mention of serious injuries, but they’re trying to head off the eastbound/southbound traffic before the crash scene.

12:44 AM: One lane still closed on eastbound/southbound Admiral.

12:49 AM … and now Admiral’s fully open again.

1:42 PM: Avoid the westbound west end of the West Seattle Bridge for a while – another crash reported.

1:55 PM: From beneath the bridge at south end of Admiral, you can see traffic moving, slowly. Radio traffic indicates it’s a flipped vehicle.

2:01 PM: Thanks to Kyle Pommer for the photo.

2:27 PM: Commenter Jenny reports all lanes have reopened. We’re checking with SFD on injuries.

(Photo sent by Casey)

2:39 PM: SFD spokesperson Kaila Lafferty tells us, “The occupant of the vehicle got out on their own. Crews assessed an approximately 24-year-old man but no injuries were reported. No transport.”

6:01 AM: Good morning! It’s Friday, November 1st, two days to go until Daylight Saving Time ends (2 am Sunday, we “fall back” one hour, into Standard Time).

WEATHER + SUNRISE/SUNSET TIMES

Showery today, high in the low 50s. Today’s sunrise will be at 7:54 am, while sunset will be at 5:50 pm – second-to-last sunset before the time change.

ROAD WORK

*The Admiral Way Bridge seismic project continues; traffic may move from the south half of the bridge to the north half today (depending on the weather). 9:42 AM UPDATE: A reader says the switch is being made right now.

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

*Monday alert re: East Marginal:

On Monday, November 4, we will fully close East Marginal Way S between S Spokane St and S Hanford St to install the permanent lane striping on the new sections of the roadway. Access to and from East Marginal Way S from S Horton St and S Hinds St will also be closed. The closure will be in effect from 7 AM to 5 PM.

Routes for people, walking, rolling, and biking will be maintained on E Marginal Way S but may have reroutes to avoid active construction. Please be alert for signage and flaggers directing traffic when traveling through the area.

This work is weather dependent and may be rescheduled due to rain.

Just checked the low bridge for signs of early reopening – and indeed, drivers and foot/bike path users have the green light again. The bridge has been closed since Friday morning for reinstallation of a turn cylinder (as explained here) and was expected to be closed until late tonight.

Avoid 35th/Morgan for a while – there’s a two-car crash on the southwest side of the intersection. One was briefly described as flipped but then “back on all fours”; the two cars are described as a Toyota Prius and a Honda CR-V. No word on injuries yet.
