The Seattle Department of Transportation says you can now apply for access to the Spokane Street Swing Bridge or the low bridge in and out of West Seattle.
SDOT says your application must be received by the 15th of the month for access to begin on the 1st of the following month. So you have until May 15 to gain access on June 1 on SDOT’s website. The two-week wait is so that license plate information can be processed into the photo enforcement system.

Glad a few more people are allowed. But am amazed at how empty the bridge is when i look at the camera. More people really could use it without blocking emergency vehicles. Reality is SDOT will never let that happen.

Perhaps it’s just a coincidence that the last three times I’ve tuned in to get screengrabs for stories, it’s looked like this. But not around the clock – for example, a little over a week ago, police had to block busy bridge-bound traffic after the 9 pm restriction lift so the medic unit with a shooting victim could have a clear path.
