Downed wires had closed a stretch of Avalon Way just south of the West Seattle Bridge, but the road is now open again.
A stretch of Avalon Way just south of the West Seattle Bridge has reopened after downed wires forced a windstorm closure.
The shutdown lasted about 19 hours and was described as the most significant West Seattle street closure tied to the storm.
With Avalon open again, one of the main routes below the bridge is back in service as storm-related disruptions continue to clear across the area.
