Hate to bring up Monday morning, but if you're in Marysville beware - SRB SR 529 is closed at Ebey Slough til 11pm Monday.
That means extra traffic at Fourth St & I-5, especially tomorrow morning. Try the I-5 interchanges at 88th or 116th.
Plan ahead!
@EverettCity @WA_Marysville

[WSDOT Traffic @wsdot_traffic]

SB SR 529 has reopened! Our contractor finished early this week.
Remember, we have another long weekend of work on SB SR 529 at Steamboat Slough 11pm Friday June 6 to 11pm Friday, June 10. We'll close again at Ebey Slough.
Thanks for your patience! @EverettCity @WA_Marysville

Marysville drivers – remember SB SR 529 is closed til 11pm June 3.

There are still signs out in Everett and on SR 529 NB that say "closed" that they are picking up, but we have visual confirmation the roadway is open and currently flowing nicely.

[Corey Hert @CoreyHert]

Weekend closures are going well with mostly normal congestion, but Monday and Tuesday afternoon promise to be a grind. WFH, transit, carpool, active transportation if you can.

[WSDOT Traffic @wsdot_traffic]

NB SR 529 is closed at Steamboat Slough until 11pm Tuesday May 6! Stay on NB I-5 from Everett to Marysville.
You can take NB 529 onto Smith Island, but you’ll have to take SB 529 off the island. SB 529 not affected.

Plan ahead, allow extra time.

[Corey Hert @CoreyHert]

Monday and Tuesday afternoon will be highest impact for Everett as SR 529 commuters attempt to get onto I-5 onramps at 41st St and Everett Ave. Expect widespread congestion in central Everett. Pack your patience and maybe a snack if you need to go north.

As we prepare our New Year's resolutions, let's defeat the fatal four. Impairment, speed, distraction, and lack of seatbelt use are involved in 75% of all traffic fatalities in Washington. The single most important safety feature in any vehicle is the driver.

[nhtsagov @NHTSAgov]

It's illegal everywhere in America to drive high. 😮‍💨❌

[Corey Hert @CoreyHert]

From 1200 to 57,220 customers out in about 30 minutes. Going to be a lot of dark signals that are all way stops this morning. Slow is the way to go on your commute this morning, watch for pedestrians and down trees and lines. Everett seems to be mostly spared at this point.

[Snohomish Regional Fire & Rescue @SnoRegionalFire]

Very heavy rains with thunder and lightning bringing power outages to our district right now. Stay indoors till it passes. Driving conditions are challenging.

[NWS Seattle @NWSSeattle]

Good morning! It will be a wet commute this morning for many of you this morning with a post-frontal convergence zone moving through areas north of Puget Sound. Be prepared for wet roadways and low visibilities.
