The Brief

Southbound I-5 across Seattle's Ship Canal Bridge will be reduced to two lanes from October 10–13, as part of major repairs to the aging bridge.

Weekend lane reductions will continue on specific dates through January 2024, with I-5 Express lanes operating southbound only, causing expected traffic backups on I-5 North.

Repair work includes cutting concrete, placing drainage channels, and replacing the bridge deck, with the project ongoing since 2020 and expected to complete in 2027; further lane reductions are planned for I-5 North in 2026 and I-5 South in 2027.

SEATTLE - Southbound I-5 across Seattle's Ship Canal Bridge will be reduced to just two lanes this weekend , as crews work to make major repairs to the aging bridge over the next several months.
