See peak travel times around Puget Sound this Memorial Day

As always with Washington traffic, prepare for delays and plan ahead this holiday weekend. Drive safely this Memorial Day.

Nice weather to go along with Memorial Day will result in stop-and-go traffic in areas of western Washington. If you can, try to avoid what WSDOT expects to be peak traffic times. 

Weekend tolls rates will be in affect on Memorial Day for the 520 bridge. The I-405 express lanes will not be tolled. 

There are no lane closures or construction planned for I-90 and Snoqualmie Pass from Friday through Monday. 

Chinook and Cayuse passes opened Thursday in time for the weekend. 

Monday traffic charts

  • U.S. 2 westbound (Leavenworth to Stevens Pass): stop and go 10 a.m. - noon
  • I-90 westbound (Cle Ellum to North Bend): stop and go from 9 a.m. - 9 p.m.
  • I-5 southbound (Tacoma to Olympia): stop and go from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.
  • I-5 northbound (Olympia to Tacoma): stop and go from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.
