Traffic from the Space Needle - Seattle

Traffic from the Space Needle

I-5 Traffic Traffic Review

Interstate 5 is apparently the main traffic artery for Seattle.

When I was up in the Space Needle I could see the commuter's traffic jam on I-5 and the TV reporter in the helicopter reporting on it.

We did have some folks in the course who were commuting from the Olympic penninsula by car. It was fortunate in a way that I did not have a car, so did not have to worry about traffic jams. (The hotel had a shuttle to the course location which was only about a mile away.)

When Bob and I visited in 2011, the traffic didn't seem to be so much of a problem (photos 4 and 5), but there are still traffic sites/cameras dedicated to reporting traffic there.
