Awesome once again, Brent.

I think I saw this, but am not sure. Are the 24-hour HOV lanes divided, with a barrier? Or not?

[FreewayBrent]

Some parts are divided, but only when approaching certain overpasses. It was a good alternate to save money, as opposed to spending tens of millions to tear down, and build brand new overpasses.

I never been to Washington State before. This vid is great. Do u have any vids covering Olympia? I would like to see that.

[FreewayBrent]

Yes, actually, I'm hoping to release my Olympia to Tacoma video soon! Expect I-90 to be released in a few minutes, probably followed by WA 520. I'll have a good 120 miles of I-5 featured on YouTube in the coming days.

[FreewayBrent]

Yeah, no kidding, and it's even a bigger shame when the weather forecasters promise mostly sunny skies!

167 Currently starts as river rd. heads to puyallup, crosses the river and becomes a freeway. It interchanges 512 and 410 and continues north.

Well, that's Tacoma all right - it's a bumpy sob.

@Nexis4Jersey Well, it technically isn't as bad as people make it out to be. Seattle gets around 37 inches per year, much less than most of the East Coast (NYC, for example, gets more than 50, and "sunny" Miami gets more than 60), and on par with cities like Chicago. Granted, most of the Southwest gets much less rainfall than Seattle, and it is also true that it is cloudy and rainy for a significant part of the year, but comparatively Seattle isn't even one of the rainiest cities in America ;)

I cannot believe u done this on Christmas Eve!

[Nexis4Jersey]

They just want to keep there pay checks , only the people form the Weather Channel are trustworthy!

[Bryant5493]

Okay, thanks.

I think GDOT should do this. The only delineation between the general-purpose lanes and the HOV+2 lanes is double white lines, which are "double-broken," if you will, when passing isn't prohibited; however, many disregard them, crossing over the double white lines, which are the same as double yellow lines.
