Ballard Bridge lane closures start today

The northbound, right line on the Ballard Bridge will be closed today through Friday, Nov. 9, while crews install fiber optic cable. The lane will be closed from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, but the walkways will remain open. The closure will resume on Nov. 13-14. The Seattle Department of Transportation tells us drivers should expect congestion, especially following bridge openings for marine traffic.
