A new 2-mile highway linking I-5 and the Port of Tacoma is coming and here’s an animation of what it will look like. Part of the SR 167 Completion Project, the highway will move freight more reliably to and from the port while taking truck traffic off local roads. Construction starts in mid-2022 and is scheduled to be completed in 2026. Once it’s done, the final project to complete the rest of the unfinished SR 167 between I-5 and Puyallup will get going. Check out the comments for a link to the

Ever drive a bumpy stretch of highway only to find it smooth on your commute that very next morning? You can thank our night maintenance crews. They do this work at night to minimize disruption to your travels. And even when we do have to close the road (like you see here), our crews aim to only close it 10 minutes at a time — so it’s less of a burden on late-night travelers. But that respect needs to go both ways. Too often, our crews get hit by speeding or distracted divers. Even in this video

Snow continues to fall Wednesday morning as you can see in this video in Spokane. Chains are required for all vehicles except AWD/4WD over I-90 Snoqualmie Pass. So far we're seeing drivers do a pretty good job giving our plows room to work. Please keep it up, take it slow, follow traction requirements and be prepared for possible delays or closures. The forecast calls for snow basically through the weekend with a few breaks here and there. | WSDOT

During the northbound I-5 Interstate Bridge closure Sept. 12-20, travelers between Vancouver and Portland will share the three existing lanes and sidewalk on the southbound bridge. A movable concrete barrier will shift lanes to allow for two lanes of travel in the direction of the heaviest commute times. For example, the bridge will have two southbound lanes and one northbound during the AM commute, and two northbound lanes and one southbound in the PM. This video shows how crews will switch the

Working under emergency authorization, WSDOT and contractor Garco Construction rebuilt the bridge using precast concrete beams to speed up construction and reduce traffic impacts.

Today is the last day for full closures this week on the US 101 Simpson Avenue Bridge in Hoquiam, near the coast. The 97-year-old bridge is having its’ steel beams repaired. Usually, we only have to close one lane for this kind of work. But the lanes on this bridge, built in 1928, are narrow are too narrow to do that safely. Thank you to everyone on the Harbor who’ve dealt with the detour to the Riverside Bridge this week. We appreciate your patience while we work to maintain the bridge. More in

A look at some of the conditions and collisions on I-90 Snoqualmie Pass last week. Between Jan. 24-27, we measured 52 inches of new snowfall, including 20 on Jan. 24 alone. While our snowplows work hard to keep the roadway open, that much snow means the roads won't be clear. But many of these collisions could be avoided by slowing down and adhering to restriction requirements like chains. We certainly aren't done with snow in the mountains this season so please be safe and cautious up there! | W

So, what exactly we were up to on I-405 this weekend? Take a look. Over the weekend, our crews completed demolition of the old 112th Ave SE bridge and installing a 200-foot-long culvert under northbound and southbound I-405. While the old bridge served us well for decades, the new bridge is longer to accommodate widening and additional lanes on I-405. The new bridge will also include direct access ramps to and from the express toll lanes, similar to the direct access ramps at Northeast 6th Stree
