The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) provides travel charts to facilitate smoother travel over Labor Day weekend, highlighting peak times for key highways such as US 2 and I-5. As summer travel continues, the state anticipates an influx of vehicles, including cars, bikes, and buses.

Travelers should prepare for increased traffic and plan their trips accordingly. WSDOT emphasizes the importance of staying alert and allowing extra time for travel.

Historical data indicates that Labor Day weekend is one of the busiest travel times in Washington. The agency's proactive measures aim to enhance overall travel safety and efficiency. By following WSDOT's recommendations, travelers can better navigate the holiday rush.
