Being stuck for over an hour gave me ample time to view this fine video about this stupid f-cking bridge

[@roywhiteo5]

lol as i was watching it i thought this looks like it takes an hour to open, let ship through and close

Has WSDOT started cycling the bridge open a few times a day in the spring, when smolts are outbound? We know the returns for runs that were outbound after the sinking rebounded, temporarily, it turns out.
