Looking for an alternative? Here are some fun alternate routes to consider, each of which offers great things to see and do along the way (for planning purposes only; Google maps do not show real-time traffic):
Hood Canal Bridge (SR 104)
Crews will upgrade and replace key elements of the SR 104 Hood Canal Bridge. The construction bolsters systems that guide the bridge together and keep both halves of the bridge connected.
Travelers can expect scheduled nightly bridge closures in May and June, with additional nighttime closures planned for September. CLICK HERE for a specific planned schedule.
The closures require good weather and calm tides, so they may be rescheduled. All closures are announced in advance. CLICK HERE for the latest Hood Canal Bridge open / closed status.
Hurricane Ridge (Olympic National Park)
Hurricane Ridge closed indefinitely following the tragic loss of Day Lodge due to fire. LEARN MORE
Hwy 101 – North Olympic Peninsula
Ongoing construction projects will be taking place around the North Olympic Peninsula for the next two years. LEARN MORE
SR 20/Kearney St Roundabout (Port Townsend)
