Bears invade Dawg-land with pigskins
The University of Washington football team hosts the California Bears
this Saturday in a 12:30 p.m. kickoff.
Da’ Bears from the Windy City fly into town Sunday for a gridiron battle
with the Seattle Seahawks. The game – originally scheduled for an
evening start – will kickoff at 1:30 p.m.
The new
Tolt Bridge under construction over the Snoqualmie River near
Carnation achieved a major construction milestone recently, with the
completion of some major concrete work.
Containment tarps and a rolling scaffold platform trailing underneath the equipment on the deck ensured that concrete slurry did not fall into the water below. Approximately 340 cubic yards of cement concrete was used. The successful pour was the culmination of weeks of careful planning, preparation and inspection by both the contractor and King County Road Services Division staff. The Tolt Bridge project construction began in June 2006 and is anticipated to be open for traffic on June 1, 2008. Remaining work includes: completion of the Span 1 concrete deck, west approach slab, walls, connection roadways, and utilities. |
