Presidential motorcade to cause major traffic delays Friday, Oct. 9

WSDOT does not have specific details about President Obama’s visit to the Emerald City on Friday, October 9, but you could face delays if you’ll be venturing in or out of downtown Seattle.

If you absolutely have to be in the city, your best bet is to stay engaged throughout his visit by tuning in to local media, downloading the WSDOT traffic app and tracking social media like the WSDOT traffic Twitter feed.

The last time the President was in town, the Secret Service had a decoy motorcade as well as the real one. So that's two opportunities to stop traffic!
