Revive I-5: Summer closures on Seattle’s Ship Canal Bridge begin July 18

Officials with the Washington State Department of Transportation and Seattle Department of Transportation give an update on the Revive I-5 closures to the Ship Canal Bridge. The essential work, which begins July 18, will address wear and tear on the bridge. “The bridge is more than 60 years old and carries more than 240,000 daily crossings each day, and it shows," WSDOT Secretary Julie Meredith said at the Friday morning news conference. All northbound lanes of I-5 through downtown Seattle will fully close Friday, July 18, until Monday, July 21. During the full weekend closure, the express lanes will run in the northbound direction around the clock. Meredith said traffic was expected to shift onto Interstate 405, State Route 99, and local roads. This weekend's closure is only the start of "a much-needed multiyear effort to extend the bridge’s life and avoid bigger disruptions down the road," Meredith said. When the full northbound closure ends on Monday, July 21, at 5 a.m., only two northbound lanes of the Ship Canal Bridge will reopen. Northbound I-5 across the Ship Canal Bridge will be reduced to two lanes, 24 hours a day, for four weeks, through Aug. 15. Again, the express lanes will run in the northbound direction. -------------------------------------------------- For more on the story: https://komonews.com/news/local/reviv... _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: KOMO News on Facebook:   / komonews   KOMO News on Twitter:   / komonews   KOMO News on Instagram:   / komo4   KOMO News on TikTok:   / komo4seattle   Subscribe to KOMO on YouTube:    / @komonews   Watch more top local news stories:    • Видео   For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.komonews.com/ Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://komonews.com/watch Download our iOS App: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/komo-...
