SDOT plans to inspect the West Seattle Bridge on Saturday, Nov. 7, closing the westbound offramp to Delridge Way SW from about 7:30 a.m. to noon.

Single-lane closures may also occur in other spots on the bridge during the day to make room for inspection vehicles and equipment.

The city says the work is part of an ongoing inspection that began in late September, not a separate closure event. Another inspection is planned later this year and is expected to bring similar traffic impacts.

Drivers headed toward Delridge Saturday morning should plan for a detour and slower trips across the bridge.
