The girders are being put in place, and the overpass of this infamous crossing in SODO will soon be a reality. Royal Brougham Way at this crossing has been on this blog a number of times in the past, with people getting clipped by trains and even one getting a wheelchair stuck in the tracks. All instances reported occurred when people went around the crossing gates.
I looked at the plans for this overpass, and they're pretty awesome. It's a complicated plan to complete this Phase of the State Route 519 project, which makes it easier for goods to move back and forth to the port. But to me the safety element being created here is really important, and quite frankly makes for some great pictures.
