They are painting stripes on the temporary replacement bridge, so it should be open tomorrow. Traffic will have to slow to 40 mph because the lanes are 11 ft.
But traffic hasn't been too bad on the detours, except last weekend. Most of the time the north bound detour has taken 15-20 minutes.
Try not to pass through the Seattle area Friday afternoon. Everyone is heading out of town, so traffic north bound on I405/I5 will be heavy.
Are you taking a ferry, or otherwise need to go through Seattle and Vancouver? If not, consider taking US97 north to BC, bypassing the busier highways and border crossings on the west side of the mountains.
