Glass spill in Parkwood neighborhood Monday

A big, big thanks to the City of Shoreline Customer Response Team, Steve from Shoreline Public Works and to area neighbors for their quick response to a major glass spill on 1st Ave NE Monday morning.

Shards of plate glass covered the entire roadway for about 20 feet, just north of NE 145th St on 1st Ave NE.

Neighbors called the Shoreline Customer Response Team and Steve showed up less than 15 minutes later with a street sweeper to clean up the mess.

It is suspected that the large amount of glass and other debris fell off a truck heading to the Shoreline transfer station but there were no witnesses. The photo does not fully portray just what a huge and dangerous mess this was.

Because of the fast response, no people, pets, or vehicles were harmed.
