Video – Washington bridge demolition time-lapse…

Fixed camera shoots three day (and night) bridge demolition.

Crews demolished the western half of the Bellevue Way overpass earlier this week to make room for a wider bridge with a shared use bicycle/pedestrian path and landscaping.

The work is part of the SR 520 Eastside Transit and HOV Project, which widens SR 520 from four to six lanes from Medina to Bellevue and includes rebuilding interchanges, installing fish-friendly culverts, and building highway lids and transit stops in the center of the highway.
