Safety concerns grow over encampment along I-5 express lanes in Seattle

There is a new safety concern over a homeless encampment along the I-5 express lanes in Seattle.

The encampment sits just north of the Ship Canal Bridge on Washington State Department of Transportation's (WSDOT) right-of-way property.

Drivers and residents said people living in the encampments are crossing the interstate to get to the other side and it's creating a danger for them and drivers.

A WSDOT spokesperson said in an email that kind of danger is part of the reason they are working to remove encampments along the interstate and confirmed the Ship Canal encampment is being addressed but could not offer any other specifics.
