WSDOT: Revive I-5 work scaled back ahead of big sports weekend in Seattle
SEATTLE - Washington State Department of Transportation is scaling back Revive I-5 work ahead of a major weekend for sports in Seattle.
According to the agency, the only work occurring this weekend is the closure of the Columbia Way off-ramp in South Seattle.
Everything else is open on I-5, including the mainline, collector/distributor lanes, I-90 ramps and the ramp to the West Seattle Bridge, WSDOT says.
Despite the ease on road work, WSDOT still expects a lot of traffic around the Mariners and Seahawks games this weekend. They encourage people to take public transit if possible.
