Heads up: Major I-5 lane closures underway — take transit and avoid stress!

The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) has begun major *Revive I-5* [ https://wsdot.wa.gov/construction-planning/search-projects/revive-i-5-ship-canal-bridge-preservation ] repair work on the northbound Ship Canal Bridge.

WSDOT’s project aims to give the aging Ship Canal Bridge some much-needed TLC. The result will be smoother roads and better safety — but first, the region must power through some serious traffic challenges.


* *Revive I-5 [ https://kingcountymetro.blog/2025/07/14/heads-up-major-i-5-lane-closures-start-july-18-plan-now/ ]* will cause major disruptions. All northbound lanes on I-5 will be closed between I-90 and NE 45th from *Friday evening, August 15* *through Monday morning, August 18;*
