The Going Could Be Slow If You're Headed To The West Side

A warning if you're headed to the west side of the state this weekend. Between Cle Elum and Easton on Fridays and Saturdays, westbound travelers headed to the Seattle area may experience heavy congestion and up to two hours of additional travel time between 2 p.m. and 10 p.m.

On Sundays from Easton to Cle Elum, eastbound travelers may experience the same conditions between noon and 9 p.m.

Construction crews are replacing damaged concrete panels. Both my neighbor and my brother. My brother said that he was stuck in the mess for 2 hours and traffic was completely stopped. People turned off their cars and he said many people could be seen sneaking off into the woods to use the facilities, if you know what I mean.
