As one who felt my life was shortened last year during the closure of the northbound bridge on Highway 529, I was dreading the day that work began on the southbound lanes. Imagine my surprise at how effective and efficient the transition has been. We all need to take our hats off to the planners, traffic routers, and all who have worked very hard to make this potentially difficult time fairly painless.
It can’t be easy, or inexpensive, to continually reroute and man the northbound lanes to adjust to the traffic flow. The actions and dedication of all involved have been nothing short of magnificent. My commute to Everett and return home has not been disrupted and I appreciate the 180-degree turnaround from last year.
As drivers we should smile and thank those making our trips possible.
