The traffic cam image taken at 4:40 pm shows virtually no traffic, since the bridge is closed due to semi truck losing its back wheels.
UPDATE at 4:53 pm: WSDOT reports that the truck is now moving after blocking traffic for an hour and a half. Bridge is now open. But Metro reports Westbound lanes on S Spokane St & 4 Av S are closed, due to a blockage until further notice.
