This fall, we’ll make the final determination as to whether we’ll move forward with repairing the current bridge or replacing it with a new structure. With our replacement consultant HNTB on board, we’re ready to pivot to designing the demolition and replacement structure, should it be determined that it’s in the public’s best interest to replace rather than repair.
To catch you up on past work conducted…
Our crews have been working hard since SDOT closed the bridge. They’ve:
Installed intelligent monitoring system to better understand what type of stabilization and repairs would be needed and to monitor the bridge during this work.
Designed and began to install stabilization measures.
Built and hoisted custom work platforms.
Begun the cost-benefit analysis (CBA) that will help inform the decision to repair or replace the bridge.
We’ve also done significant work on the ground to address traffic impacts.
Since March, we’ve implemented 175 changes to support communities affected by the West Seattle Bridge closure.
During the closure, we’re working to keep people moving, lessen the impacts to the best of our ability, and preserve/enhance public safety.
We know that no level of traffic mitigation can overcome the 100,000+ travelers displaced across West Seattle, Duwamish Valley, and Seattle as a whole by the closure of the High-Rise Bridge. But to the greatest extent of our ability, we’re working diligently to mitigate the impacts and above all else, maintain public safety for you.
Every day since the closure, our teams have been actively listening to the community and taking action in and around the peninsula to keep you safe.
