Studded Tire Deadline Extended Again

The Washington State Department of Transportation has extended the deadline to remove snow tires again. Winter weather and freezing temperatures forecasted for the Cascade mountains and most of eastern Washington led to the decision to move the deadline to April 17.

Drivers must remove their studded tires by 12:01 a.m., Sunday April 18.

WSDOT is encouraging drivers in areas with milder temperatures to remove their studded tires as soon as possible and not wait until the April 17 deadline.
