They will apply permanent markings to these areas when weather and work schedule allow.SDOT also has changed the turning restriction for northbound traffic from the bridge. Left-hand turns are now allowed except during peak traffic times on weekdays between 3 and 7 p.m.Also, the Ship Canal Trail in the area under the south end of the bridge on Monday, May 5.For more information, go on-line to www.seattle.gov/fremontbridge.[[In-content Ad]]
