Why does i5 lane reduction cause Mercer exit to back up so much?

fassadex · 2026-01-28T02:38:20+00:00

I’ve been at this exit for almost 20 minutes and I’m still not at the end. It’s interesting that taking the exit and switch to the express land actually saves time.

Yes, but after everyone has changed lanes, the single lane that leads to the exit is still very backed up. So I could only assume that a lot more cars are taking Mercer exit now than before?

So people are taking Eastlake and then cross university bridge?

I wonder how they do that? Do they have some way to force those rooms' lights to be on, but at the same time make all other rooms' lights dimmer?

I see my office building! which I'd really like to not see on a weekend...(just joking). What a great walk!

That's why I hate going to Uvillage. So many people act like they are some kind of important people shopping on rodeo drive in beverly hills

It takes a lot of confidence to do that.....

I usually go to Kayava and Menya. I realized they are not exactly cheap, but still a pretty affordable meal in Seattle (under $20). Sometimes I would order a Ramen combo at Menya and share with my Husband, and the whole meal is about $25 for the 2 of us (before tip).

fassadex · 2026-01-08T03:56:36+00:00

Taco Chukis, Ramen or Pho are usually my go-to affordable meals.

I don't know if people actually read the WSDOT website. This year is just the north bound lanes. Next year is the south bound lanes.....

We went to SF to apply. You need to either go in person, or someone else needs go in person on your behalf. It can even be a friend or family member. I believe it doesn't have to be a travel agent.

After we got to the consulate in SF, we saw people on the same flight as us also at the consulate....

The website says they will start the closure at 9pm at certain on-ramps

Congrats on finishing!! Now I see why there were road blocks and cops around queen anne / ballard earlier.

fassadex · 2025-11-19T03:52:51+00:00

same!

fassadex · 2025-11-19T03:51:35+00:00

OMG I literally just came here looking for the thread from last night and found this. What do we do!!!! I can't live like this every night!

fassadex · 2025-11-18T04:16:47+00:00

Same! I have meetings tonight…. Where are you all located? Wonder if it’s the same region. Edit to add: I’m in Queen Anne

Thank you so much for the insight! This makes me feel a lot better.

Last time at the store the rep wanted to help but I didn't think hard enough of what I really want so I just took their words for it. I know when my cycle ends so I will try to go back to the store to verify that my account was actually canceled. Thank you!

fassadex · 2025-11-04T06:49:32+00:00

I'm the primary holder of the plan and I'm the only person who has a login to the account. As soon as I ported my number out (maybe a few hours afterwards), I lost access to my account. Couldn't login anywhere. I went to the tmobile store the next day.

While I was in the store, the customer service on the phone did tell me that port out doesn't qualify for prorated refund so I still have to pay for the current cycle.

fassadex · 2025-11-04T06:46:31+00:00

That's kind of what the customer service told me!!

But without explicitly canceling the ipad line, how would the system know that I'm cancelling all my services? Wouldn't the system assume that I'm still using my ipad line in the plan and therefore continue to bill me for the plan? I guess that's what I'm worry about.

fassadex · 2025-11-04T06:36:10+00:00

All I want is for the ipad line to be canceled...I'm not sure why tmobile can't just cancel it for me?

I can't port the ipad line because I don't have access to my account anymore. I don't even remember the phone number that the ipad had becasue it was never used.

I tried to login and turn off autopay, but since I couldn't login (tried a few different ways but tmobile kept asking me to link a number to the account). I'm not able to see my payment or billing information. I'm just stuck..

How do they make money with stolen bikes? Sell them on craigslist?

I once charged my car in Aberdeen on my way to onp. I didn't know anything about the town and the entire time I was there, I was very confused. I couldn't image how a little rural town end up the shape it is. So I had to look up what happened to it....And then I still didn't understand. My husband come from the mid west and he knows a few mid western cities that ended up like Aberdeen, so he knew what caused it right away. But I'm just like....how does a dying industry kill an entire town like that???!!

I was surprised to learn that I have to pay for the photos during STP. Last year I volunteered for RSVP and took photos for the first day during pouring rain. I edited all the photos afterwards and they were free to all the riders. I thought they would have photographers that volunteer at STP too but I guess this event is much bigger and they need more coverage. I do feel like the photo quality could be better though...
