Information concerning state and some city routes is provided by non-King County agencies and included for the convenience of the public. If it is critical that you have more current information about the status of a road or a service request, please call 206-477-8100 or 800-527-6237. In major events, phone lines will be very busy and your patience is requested. Please do not e-mail for emergency road status information.

Please note that short-term road closures related to traffic collisions or utility work such as down powerlines are not reported via Road Alerts or My Commute as those closures are managed by outside agencies. During normal working hours, King County will attempt to post closure information of this type on our X (Twitter) account.

DISCLAIMER: King County Road Services provides Road Alerts as a service to the public. While we try to provide accurate and timely information, estimates of the nature and duration of closures are subject to variables such as weather and traffic conditions that are beyond the control of King County and, therefore, difficult to predict. People relying on this information should do so at their own risk.
