Longshoremen and crane operators who’ve spent decades working at the port believe excessive speeds on SR 509 and two sudden stoplights don’t mix.
A devastating crash on Sunday morning
Port worker Kenneth Wilson said six months prior to the fiery collision of a KIA and BMU SUV, he had a near-death experience of his own. Wilson recalled it was 6:30 a.m., he was on his way to work at the Port of Tacoma when suddenly he was t-boned by another driver. Wilson told us it’s a miracle he walked away with just a broken sternum and torn shoulder muscles.
Longshoremen and crane operators who’ve spent decades working at the port expressed similar concerns. They believe excessive speeds on State Route 509 and two sudden stoplights don’t mix. The Washington Department of Transportation reports the City of Tacoma operates the lights and the cabinet. Right now there are two stoplights a couple dozen yards apart.
