This bridge passes over Montlake Cut, a part of the Lake Washington Ship Canal. Somewhere around 40,000 to 60,000 vehicles cross this bridge every day, but don't worry: There's a separate pedestrian walkway that cyclists can use, too.

THE classic Seattle bridge, often seen in photos of crew races along the Montlake Cut. Yes, it's a bottleneck and traffic can be bad (for cars, at least - bikes zip by). The towers at each end are a landmark for everyone associated with the University of Washington and surrounding neighborhoods. The pedestrian/cyclist paths on either side can get crowded, so be careful.
