    Representatives from the City of Tacoma and the Port of Tacoma celebrated the official re-opening of the Hylebos Bridge during a ribbon-cutting ceremony Wednesday. The bridge was out of commission for more than a decade before funding from the City of Tacoma, the Federal Highway Administration, and the Port of Tacoma paid for repairs. The Hylebos Bridge, which spans the Hylebos Waterway on East 11th Street, is an important transportation corridor for truck drivers hauling cargo throughout the tide flats and Northeast Tacoma residents headed toward State Route 509.
