BACK TO SCHOOL
-One more reminder, the new school year has begun for Summit Atlas at 35th/Roxbury.
ROAD WORK
-Admiral Bridge seismic work continues; a reader reports the cones were removed from the one closed lane on Wednesday, so we are asking SDOT again if that means top-side work is done. (If it is, we’ll write a separate story; if not, we’ll update here.)
-Work continues on curb ramps at 60th/Admiral.
-The major nighttime work on and around 16th SW in White Center continues – details here – and King County Road Services has announced intermittent closures.
-Less than a week and a half until the low bridge closes the weekend of August 23-24 for cylinder work.
WEEKEND CLOSURES
-Two events on Saturday include major road closures: Alki Beach Pride (part of Alki Ave.) and SOPASUPA (South Cloverdale west of 14th Ave. South).
TRANSIT TODAY
Metro buses – On regular schedule and routes today.
Washington State Ferries – WSF has three-boat service on the Triangle Route, with M/V Kittitas, M/V Cathlamet, and M/V Sealth. Vessel Watch will show you which boat is where.
