The city has announced closure of the West Seattle Bridge due to concrete cracks recently discovered in inspections. Here's the announcement. The lower bridge (a drawbridge) will allow passage by first responders, transit, and freight. The rest of us headed toward I-5 or I-90 will have to use the First Avenue bridge (also a draw bridge) or the bridge at South Park to cross the Duwamish River. This will certainly make sheltering in place more optimal for unnecessary trips, but the folks needed to get to work, appointments and such will suffer--particularly healthcare workers.
