Yesterday, the Teamster truck attended a rally in Ballard to continue our fight against the Seattle City Council’s attempt to build a bicycle path on Shilshole Ave, directly under the path of hundreds of loaded freight vehicles per day. The event was a success, with cooperative weather, great turnout, and a skilled driver who was able to get the Teamster truck into Ballard despite heavy rush hour traffic. Thanks to Senior Business Agent Roger Pardo for stepping up to drive this time!
