SDOT has posted a press release about the opening of the eastbound 4th Avenue offramp from the Spokane Street viaduct:

Ahead of schedule and under budget, the new eastbound Spokane Street Viaduct Fourth Avenue S Off-ramp opens for use Monday, August 16, after the morning commute.

At 9:15 a.m. SDOT Director Peter Hahn, Councilmember Tom Rasmussen and invited dignitaries will officially open the ramp for use. At 9:30 a.m. a media tour of the new structure will be led by Project Manager Stuart Goldsmith.

Once the media tour is complete, safety barriers will be removed and traffic will flow onto the new eastbound Fourth Avenue S ramp.
