My commute gets worse by the week, but only the last few blocks. The whole intersection I work at is being torn up and blocked off a little bit more each time, as part of the work on the Spokane St. Viaduct. Can't even get Eastbound on Spokane from 1st to 4th anymore. All the detours are treacherous construction zones too, because 1st Ave is all torn up as well. Should be done by 2012 or some such thing...
