Expect minor traffic delays on the Fox Island Bridge Aug. 16-19 while crews perform maintenance work. 


The bridge will be reduced to one lane with alternating traffic from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Flaggers will direct traffic. Motorists should add extra travel time.


Crews will make surface repairs along the bridge deck and at the abutment on the north end of the bridge, repair a section of guardrail just south of the bridge, and repair a railing on the west side of the bridge.
