Tell WSDOT to clear Snoqualmie Pass of road construction on heavy traffic days
To not schedule road construction on I-90 eastbound over Snoqualmie Pass on Fridays (or holiday weekend Thursdays) after noon, when 2 million people are trying to leave Seattle, nor on Sundays (or holiday Mondays) westbound after noon when they are all returning.
Why is this important?
Traffic data collection has not kept up with the current patterns of population growth and a simple restriction of this main artery between King county and Kittitas county causes backups of up to 3 hours and 16 miles between Bandera and Cle Elum. This causes a very dangerous situation for the people stuck in that bottleneck, as well as reducing the free travel and economic commerce between these two counties.
A simple reshuffling of schedules that would accompany this priority would cost the state absolutely nothing, but benefit the state greatly.
Are you tired of waiting or changing your plans because of the WSDOT construction schedule? Tell them so.
