The Washington state Department of Transportation is advising drivers to plan now for winter weather and to use the online travel charts for hassle-free holiday travel.
While most construction projects will be paused over the four-day Thanksgiving weekend, drivers should still expect delays on most major travel routes through Washington, including Interstate 90, US 2, and I-5, according to WSDOT.
