Alert: Postponed U Bridge bike lane work rescheduled to start Monday
by Tom Fucoloro from Seattle Bike Blog on (#564GY)
SDOT will close the northbound bike lane of the University Bridge Monday to Wednesday to install a higher-traction surface treatment across the bascule section of the bridge. The southbound bike lane will then be closed August 10 to 12.
As we reported previously, this work was delayed from its original schedule due to issues with the primer crews were planning to use. For more details on the project, see our original post.
Work both weeks will hopefully only require Monday and Tuesday closures, SDOT said in an email.
If we are able to complete the work ahead of schedule we will check back on Tuesday evening to see if the treatment has completely set and the lanes can be reopened early," said an SDOT spokesperson.
