SEATTLE – WSDOT crews have lifted the flammable cargo restriction on Interstate 5 under the Washington State Convention and Trade Center in Seattle. It was put in place earlier this morning so crews could conduct maintenance work on the fire suppression system under the Convention Center. The system is up and running properly.
