Bye, bye Alaska Way Viaduct




For those of you following our endless Bertha tunnel saga, here's a new video from the DOT. 

The tunnel is due to open by the end of 2019, at which point the Viaduct can start to be torn down.  It will be a disruptive and tricky process that could take almost a year. Maybe. They use an annoying corporate jargon verb in the video: "Incentivize," meaning "to motivate."

Progress marches on on Seattle...
