I present to you: this week’s MAPsterpiece. From Pride to PLUR. Pirates to parades. Hoopfest to honky-tonk. There’s something happening in just about every corner of the state this weekend. With Seattle Pride taking center stage, expect heavier traffic in and around downtown Seattle, especially on Sunday during the parade. Whether you’re headed to celebrate, dance at the Gorge, see pirates storm the shores of Alki, shoot hoops in Spokane or simply trying to get from Point A to Point B, here’s what you should know before you hit the road. – Sedgwick Rd/SR 160 in Kitsap County remains CLOSED between Blackberry Hill Ln SE and Long Lake Rd SE through the end of October while crews build a new bridge over Salmonberry Creek. Drivers should continue using the detour via Jackson Ave SE, SE Salmonberry Rd and Long Lake Rd SE. Bicycle and pedestrians should continue using Phillips Rd SE, SE Salmonberry Rd, Long Lake Rd SE and Lakeview Dr SE. – The ramp from SB I-5 to SB I-205 in Vancouver will be CLOSED from 10 p.m. Friday until 10 a.m. Sunday while crews complete paving work. Travelers will need to use an alternate route to access southbound I-205. – The right lane of northbound I-5 near Napavine will be CLOSED from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday and Tuesday night for paving work near the Koontz Road overpass (between MP 69 and 70). No matter where the weekend takes you, plan ahead before you leave. Check our app or real-time travel map, consider riding Amtrak Cascaded or transit when it works for your trip, and give yourself a little extra time! And finally, because we couldn’t let this week pass without getting a little sentimental… Believe it or not, this week marks 10 years since the birth of our very first paint map. They grow up so fast. Swipe to see the baby! submitted by /u/wsdot |
