The scheduled early summer reopening has been pushed back more than two months because of the King County concrete strike earlier this year.
The contractor had planned to pour the concrete for the steel support beams inside the bridge at the start of the year. Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell set a February 20 deadline for the strike to end before the reopening would be impacted. The concrete didn’t arrive until mid-April.There had been hope that the contractor could make up the time and keep the schedule somewhat intact, but that didn’t happen.
“It’s been hard having to wait for this update, but we did need to get through the concrete work to understand exactly where we were schedule-wise,”Program Manager Heather Marx said in a statement. The earliest the bridge will reopen is September 12.
