The Alaskan Way Viaduct is closed this weekend for inspection. On Saturday (not Sunday like we originally said) from 9:30 a.m. to noon, WSDOT, King County & the city will be taking people on a 45-minute walking tour of the roadway. Participants will learn more about the history of Seattle’s downtown waterfront, how the viaduct is monitored and inspected, construction that’s already started, and upcoming work to replace the structure. RSVPs are required. Please send an e-mail to viaduct@wsdot.wa.gov, or call 1–888–AWV–LINE. Please note that for safety purposes, no children under age 16 or pets are allowed on the tours.
