    • Viaduct section settles another quarter inch

      Posted by Jon from Seattle Post-Intelligencer

      The five inches of settlement is still short of the six-inch amount at which the state had determined that repairs were needed, and "if it continues to follow the settlement trends in the past we should be well ahead of the 6-inch limit" by the time repairs start this fall, Coffman said. The state imposed a 10-ton vehicle weight limit on the structure and has restricted heavy trucks to the right-hand lanes in each direction to reduce stress on its cross-beams

      Tunnel, Rebuild get hammered: voters choose “none of the above”

      Posted by Jeff from Horse's Ass

      Kudos to Cary Moon for running the People's Waterfront Campaign when all of us thought she was initially in a losing fight. I'd support her for City Council or State Rep in a second. Shame on Nick Licata for being a Viaduct Vote Denier. Today on KUOW he tried to claim that the 55% No Vote was actually supportive of a rebuild. What about math don't you understand Nick? All I can say is let's be glad that the Viaduct can't make the playoffs...

      Why a bigger viaduct? The election's nearing

      Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times

      Highway engineering propaganda before Seattle's viaduct vote? "It's true, a new viaduct would be a lot bigger than the old one. If an elevated structure replaces the Alaskan Way Viaduct, it would be built around and over the old viaduct, so traffic could keep flowing during 10 years of construction."

      Gregoire doubts surface option for Viaduct

      Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times

      Never thought I'd see this in the Seattle Times: "Some see a surface alternative as the only politically viable option." ... and then "The governor said she doesn't see how it would work. Research has shown the option would cause traffic congestion downtown and on Interstate 5, she said."
