@wsdot HBD to the longest floating bridge in the world! What was our SR 520 Bridge like in the 2010s, you ask? Just like the rest of us, our bridge went through phases. Except instead of questionable haircuts, it was busy becoming the longest floating bridge in the world. It opened in 2016 and has been keeping people moving across Lake Washington ever since. Happy 10th birthday, SR 520 Bridge!
