The Sellwood Bridge reopens to all traffic Tuesday morning, just in time for the morning rush hour.

THANKS TO OUR SPONSOR:
The Sellwood Bridge should be finished on time around Thanksgiving, but about five percent over budget.

The bridge had been closed since Friday evening as crews worked to turn on traffic signals on both ends of the bridge and restripe the road, among other things. Now, for the first time in several years, commuters heading west across the bridge will be able to turn left and head towards Lake Oswego, according to Multnomah County spokesman Mike Pullen.

The bridge is currently slated for completion in November.
