It’s back to normal on Interstate 90 Friday morning. A week’s worth of westbound squeeze while crews replaced expansion joints in the floating bridge has come to an end.
“All lanes and ramps have reopened for I-90. They reopened about an hour or so before the 5 a.m. schedule, so everything should be good this morning,” says Washington State Department of Transportation Spokesman Mike Allende.
According to Allende, the project on the bridge went far better than expected and drivers adjusted well.
Crews have a chance to catch their breath, and then get back to work on the I-90 expansion joints next week. That will be overnight work, and won’t affect the morning and afternoon commutes.
