 Northwest traffic from the High Performance Homes Traffic Center. Heavy traffic in Renton. Northbound 405 is jammed up around 167 and running slow really all the way from South Center to Newport Hills. A 30-minute delay getting up to Bellevue right now. And heavy congestion throughout downtown Seattle. Mercer and Denny are busy around Seattle Center. And northbound I-5 is jammed up at the merge with I-90. And heading into downtown, construction on northbound I-5 has the road down to two lanes at Boeing Field. Drive time from Tacoma to Seattle, 89 minutes.
