Delridge Pedestrian Bridge Seismic Project Updates

Construction updates: December 10, 2024

Construction to help the Delridge Pedestrian Bridge better withstand earthquakes is nearly complete! Crews are wrapping up retrofits to the bridge’s components. Once these retrofits are finished, they will work on final details while leaving the fencing around the work site up to allow for grass establishment. We will remove this fencing and temporarily reopen the bridge as soon as early January 2025. In late January 2025, crews will return to install railings, and the bridge may need to be closed again for a short period of time (1-2 days) to ensure this work can be completed safely. We’ll notify neighbors and share more details via these email updates and on our project webpage [ https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/projects-and-programs/programs/bridges-stairs-and-other-structures/bridges/delride-pedestrian-bridge?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ] in advance of this work. 

As crews are wrapping up construction, sidewalks and car lanes are closed under the bridge on Delridge Way SW in three phases to divert people walking, rolling, biking, and driving where work is occurring. *We have transitioned into our second phase of sidewalk and lane closures*. During this phase, Delridge Way SW is reduced to one lane in each direction, with car traffic shifted to the west. Between SW Genesee St and SW Oregon St, the sidewalk on the east side of Delridge Way SW is closed while crews work on the east side of the bridge. In addition, *no street parking is allowed on the east side of Delridge Way SW while this phase is in effect*. 

The map below shows the current sidewalk and lane closures:

At least one lane of travel in each direction and a sidewalk on one side of the street will be maintained throughout each phase. Please visit our project webpage [ https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/projects-and-programs/programs/bridges-stairs-and-other-structures/bridges/delride-pedestrian-bridge?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ] to learn more about how travel will be impacted during each phase. 

The *Delridge Pedestrian Bridge is closed to all people walking, biking, and rolling for the duration of construction* (up to 12 months) to ensure their safety and allow our crews to work as efficiently as possible. As a reminder, we anticipate that construction will be substantially complete by early January 2025. Construction schedules are subject to change and depend on factors such as weather and availability of crews and materials. 

We will continue to provide updates on construction activities on our project webpage [ https://www.seattle.gov/transportation/projects-and-programs/programs/bridges-stairs-and-other-structures/bridges/delride-pedestrian-bridge?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery ] and via these email updates. Please feel free to share this email with your neighbors and encourage them to sign up for our email updates [ https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/WASEATTLE/subscriber/new?qsp=WASEATTLE_8 ] to stay informed on the project.    

*What to expect during construction*    

We understand our closure of the Delridge Pedestrian Bridge for the duration of construction and phases of sidewalk and lane closures impacts everyone who uses the bridge and Delridge Way SW regularly. We are actively working to ensure our traffic control plan runs smoothly and impacts travelers as little as possible.  

In addition to the phases of sidewalk and lane closures, you can expect:       


* A full closure of the bridge during construction 

* Work in the public right-of-way near your home or business  

* Temporary on-street parking restrictions, with "no park" signs placed 72 hours in advance 

* Staged construction equipment and materials as well as noise, dust, and vibrations in the work area 

* Typical weekday work hours of 7 AM – 5 PM, Monday through Friday
