BEEP BEEP THE HAWKS ARE BACK IN SEATTLE. And so are 750,000 of your closest friends, all coming to Seattle to celebrate our SUPER BOWL CHAMPS. So if you're heading to Seattle tomorrow, take whatever ferry, bus, train, or spinning teacup is closest to you. Please.

That Super Bowl feeling is back, Seattle!! What an epic victory for the Seahawks, the 12s, the state of Washington and the left coast! With rain back in the forecast, remember to allow extra travel time and distance. Stay alert and make it a championship commute.

SEAHAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This admin may not have much snowplow content lately, but at least the North Spokane Corridor never lets us down.

How are we feeling today, Seattle?? With the decibel-shattering support of the 12s, your Seahawks are Super Bowl bound... again! Let's celebrate the win by making today's commute, safe and penalty-free. Allow extra follow distance and use extra caution in work zones.

Heads up: Avalanche control is scheduled for US 2 Stevens Pass starting at 4AM Friday (1/9). We will hold eastbound traffic at Scenic (milepost 58) while crews complete the mission, which takes between 30 minutes to 2 hours. Westbound US 2 will reopen at 6AM

When we say circle back in the new year, this is what we mean

Visiting US 2 Stevens, hearing multiple reports of cars passing the pilot car line and within 2 minutes see this rude move by an inconsiderate driver doing just that. This isn't just obnoxious, it is unsafe. You are endangering crews and fellow travelers. Just don't.

Hey now, would you look at that! Crews have made progress on road repairs and inspections and US 2 between Skykomish and Stevens Pass Resort will reopen for both directions in a limited capacity by Sunday, Jan. 4. More here: wsdot.wa.gov/about/news/2...

On Dec. 29, we'll reopen a portion of US 2 to daylight pilot car operations. A pilot car will guide alternating traffic between 6AM-6PM between Stevens Pass and Mill Creek Rd. More info: wsdot.wa.gov/about/news/2025/access-us-2-stevens-pass-reopen-daytime-pilot-car-operations-starting-dec-29

FINAL UPDATE: Emergency repairs on SR 410 in Enumclaw have finished after floodwaters damaged a section of the highway near Boise Creek in Enumclaw. The roadway has reopened in both directions.

Our friends at @nws.noaa.gov are predicting high winds for our region. Reminders: -Watch out for possible downed power lines & trees -DON'T drive through downed trees/lines/road closed signs -Treat dark traffic signals as all-way stops -Make sure your loads are extra secure

Repairs are complete on the NB SR 167 Third Ave SW bridge in Pacific. NB SR 167 lanes reopened across the bridge at 430am Tues (12/23). Third Ave SW also reopened. Our contractor & WSDOT crews worked around the clock to reopen ahead of schedule after bridge strike this fall.

Good morning, traffic fam. Don't forget to take some time to download the @wsdot.wa.gov app before you go for real-time alerts, ferry wait times, travel times and more. Search "WSDOT" in your app store.

FINAL UPDATE SR 167 Do you see what I see? Northbound SR 167 lanes and on-ramps are BACK OPEN in Kent and Auburn. Floodwater has receded, sandbags have been removed and WSDOT crews have inspected the highway before REOPENING Friday afternoon, Dec. 19.

UPDATE 5: Southbound SR 167 is OPEN between S 212th St in Kent & 15th St NW in Auburn. Northbound SR 167 remains CLOSED in this area due to water on the roadway. Our crews are placing sandbags and pumping water off the roadway. There is no ETA for reopening NB SR 167 lanes.

UPDATE 4: SR 410 has reopened between Enumclaw and Greenwater. We reestablished the WB lane for limited, single-lane access, controlled by temporary traffic signals that will alternate EB & WB. This is to safely manage essential movement while protecting the damaged roadway.

UPDATE 3: SB SR 167 has reopened in Kent and Auburn. Northbound SR 167 & multiple ramps remain closed btwn S 212th St and 15th St NW (mp 16-22) w/ water on the road. Our crews worked throughout the weekend to reopen the SB lanes. Work continues to redirect water off NB lanes.

Several roads across western WA reopened today. That's the good news. But we're still seeing water & debris in multiple places and ongoing road closures. The ground remains saturated in slide-prone areas. Stay vigilant Don't drive thru standing water Obey road closed signs

SR 410 UPDATE ✅ We are OPEN in both directions in Sumner. Water has receded from the roadway. @traffic.wsdot.wa.gov

As rain continues to fall, roads may continue to flood. Things to keep in mind these next few days🧵 1. Road conditions can change quickly, but your GPS apps may not have the most recent info. Check our travel map for the most accurate current conditions: wsdot.com/Travel/Real-...

Atmospheric river on the menu? We're ready! Our crews work in advance of the storm. Today, that meant clearing a downed tree on SR 410, prepping chainsaws at the Kent shed & pumping water on SR 18. Please slow down for our crews, they're working 24/7 to keep roads open.

Look, we know you're bombarded with 2025 Wrapped/Replay posts. But ours includes a majestic floating bridge and TLC, so… we felt compelled to share. What were you listening to in 2025, 520 fam?!

Village of Lights season is here, bringing to the city of Leavenworth half a million twinkling lights, holiday festivities...and traffic! Don't get spooked and add extra time for your trip if you're traveling on US 2 between Stevens Pass and Wenatchee this weekend.

Heads up: Due to a power outage, the SR 99 tunnel in Seattle is CLOSED in both directions. Seek alternate routes. @seacitylight.bsky.social @seattledot.bsky.social

SR 20 North Cascades Highway reopened this morning at 11 a.m. If you plan to drive over Rainy and Washington passes, please be prepared for winter weather, be sure to drive for conditions, and give our plows plenty of room to work. @wspd6pio

Our maintenance crews are getting SR 11/Chuckanut Drive ready for winter by clearing leaves, rocks and tree debris from the road and ditches. Expect alternating traffic between Blanchard Dr and the Skagit/Whatcom county line until about 3p today near Bow as this work wraps up.

The weather across the pass is going to be a little wicked today and into the weekend, with lots of rain forecasted. Please remember to slow down and turn on your headlights for safety.

Labu-BOO! Remember that the scariest thing on the road tonight should be a child dressed as a pop culture reference you’re too old to understand. Be extra cautious driving today, and keep an eye out for trick-or-treaters. Happy Halloween!

Which traffic cam spider are you today?

There will be snow on SR 20 North Cascades Highway this weekend. Crews are prepared, are you? Tires, warm coat, full tank of gas, charged cell, headlights on and-most of all- driving for conditions. Slower is better than a spin out. On the road we're in it together.

UPDATE: I-90 remains closed WB at Exit 80 near Cle Elum after an oversized load struck the overpass. Travelers are being detoured at Exit 80 via the off- and on-ramp. Crews will be out today to assess the damage. The Washington State Patrol is investigating. No estimate for a reopening.

Going to the @mariners.com game tonight? Plan your travel accordingly -- download the @wsdot.wa.gov app so you know before you go. Check travel times, real-time closure info, ferry wait times and more! Search "WSDOT" in your app store. Go M's!

No more pilot car on US 97 Blewett Pass, but crews continue to deal with the Labor Mountain Fire, so plan for flaggers and reduced speeds, and be aware that trailheads and campgrounds in the area are closed due to the fire. Please plan ahead and be patient.

Expect significant backups as traffic gets moving again.

UPDATE 6:10am: NB I-5 backup stretches 7 miles to near SR 18 after an earlier crash at SR 516 in #Kent. Four GP lanes remain closed. No estimate for reopening. Expect significant delays. Use alt routes if possible. @wsdot.wa.gov @tacoma.wsdot.wa.gov @kentwa.gov

Great news!!!

ATTN: US 97 Blewett will remain closed from milepost 149-178 due to the Labor Mountain Fire. Conditions will be reassessed Tues. (10/7). There is no estimated time to reopen. Thank you for your patience and thank you to the hard working crews.

(1/3) US 97 Blewett Pass will remain closed (MP 149-178) over the weekend due to Labor Mountain Fire activity. Conditions will be reassessed on Monday (10/6). That means additional traffic on I-90 and US 2 as we all head out on weekend adventures.

US 97 Blewett Pass remains closed between MP 149-178 due to the Labor Mountain Fire. The pass has been closed since Sept. 21. Fire remains active on both sides of the road and visibility is low. There is no estimated time to reopen. When Blewett is closed, that puts added traffic on I-90 and US 2.

UPDATE #9: Crews continue work on the White River Bridge. Installing each brace takes time because we have to reposition equipment & balance the load before moving forward. Braces add strength & gets us closer to starting permanent repairs & ultimately reopening later this fall.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, North Cascades Highway! On this day in 1972, the final section of SR 20 North Cascades Highway opened, completing a project nearly 80 years in the making.

On this day in 1963, the original SR 520 floating bridge opened. The same day, Dr. King gave his “I Have a Dream” speech in D.C. Two bridges built that day. One across water, connecting communities; one across injustice, calling a nation to reflect. Photo courtesy: MOHAI

Vantage Bridge lanes reopen for Labor Day Weekend a day early!

Hey, squad: Stay GOLDEN this Labor Day weekend by checking our travel charts, app & socials before you head out. See the best/worst times to hit the road so you don’t lose your soul to traffic: https://wsdot.wa.gov/travel/holiday-weekend-travel/labor-day-weekend-travel-times/us-2-travel-charts

SR 18 HAS REOPENED After a busy weekend of maintenance and construction, our crews reopened EB & WB SR 18 over Tiger Mtn. Thank you for your patience during this important work. @wsdot.wa.gov @tacoma.wsdot.wa.gov @snoqualmiepass.wsdot.wa.gov

WE. ARE. OPEN EARLY! All lanes of northbound I-5 are OPEN in downtown Seattle! Thanks to crews for working hard this weekend to get the road open ahead of schedule. And thanks to everyone who made adjustments to their travels to help lessen traffic.

NB I-5 is now CLOSED in downtown Seattle from the I-90 interchange to NE 45th Street until 5 a.m. Monday, Aug. 18.

You’re doing great, Greg.

There's a GOAT on the westside and Cougs to the east. It's Ichiro Hall of Fame Weekend at the @mariners.com games. It's @pullman.wsu.edu Move-In Weekend. We got you covered for both. Plan ahead for construction & maintenance work zones, heavy traffic for events, and safe travels!
