After Long Process, West Marginal Way Bike Connection Delayed to 2022

The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) has announced that it will hold off on constructing an on-street bike connection from the West Seattle Bridge Trail to the Duwamish River Trail on West Marginal Way SW until after the West Seattle High bridge reopens to vehicle traffic next year.
The connection was originally planned to be included in a slate of improvements that would improve conditions for all road users along West Marginal Way, including the completion of the missing sidewalk directly north of the Duwamish Tribe’s Long House, which has already been installed with asphalt (to be upgraded to concrete next year) and the installation of a pedestrian signal and crosswalk across West Marginal close to the Long House, which is set to be constructed starting in August or September. ....

Freight Advisory Board Pushes Back Against West Marginal Bike Lane in Secret Meeting

The Seattle Freight Advisory Board devoted a significant portion of their April meeting detailing reasons that the City should not install a protected bike lane on a short segment of West Marginal Way SW. The presentation shown to board members was not reviewed by the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) for accuracy, according to a department spokesperson.
While a link to the virtual meeting was available on a City website, an agenda for the meeting was not, providing no way for members of the public to even be aware that it was being discussed. The Freight Advisory Board has also not posted the minutes from one of its meetings since last last July, so who knows when the fact that it had even been talked about would be available as a matter of public record. ....

West Seattle Blog… | Why isn't low-bridge access increasing more quickly? It's 'complicated,' West Seattle Bridge Community Task Force told

Holy cow, the data shows there were ~2000 entitled jerks per day ignoring the law on that bridge? Is it possible to go back to camera footage from before enforcement began to identify who they are, and banish them from west Seattle permanently? I’m certain they wouldn’t be missed.

You seem like a very reasonable person.

that’s a pretty bold statement. you should worry about your own driving not the driving of others. Every time someone who is unauthorized crosses the bridge the city brings in $75 (not all of that goes directly to the city), and that goes to things such as road repairs and cameras. if you’re so worried and distraught by people making their own decisions maybe you should be banished to west Seattle. ....

West Seattle Blog… | From repair planning to West Marginal Way questions @ West Seattle Bridge Community Task Force's February meeting


West Seattle Blog editor
SDOT says it’s making progress toward high-bridge repairs, though they are still more than half a year away.
The bridge update brought most of the new information at Thursday’s monthly meeting of the
West Seattle Bridge Community Task Force, but with so many related projects, the meeting was stuffed so full of presentations that CTF members had little time to discuss anything, and the plan for breaking into groups for opinions of the West Marginal Way bike-lane proposal had to be scrapped.
First, here’s video of the two-hour meeting:
Here’s what caught our attention: ....
