by Tom Fucoloro from Seattle Bike Blog on (#77Z66)
A very bumpy section of the Ship Canal Trail along W Emerson St near Fisherman's Terminal is getting fixed. Luckily, there's a fairly easy detour on the north side of the street, though it does require crossing at the 19th Ave W signal.
Expect the detour starting tomorrow (August 27) through August 31.
More details from SDOT:
We will be starting on Thursday 8/27 with the segment of theShipCanalTrail near the Fisherman's Terminal.
