Travel and service alerts

Seattle Alerts

Use Alerts when the question is what needs attention right now. This page is best for deciding whether to act now, reroute, or keep an eye on a live issue. Use Now for the fastest snapshot, Brief for the calmer daily read, and Status when you want to check feed or system health rather than the alerts themselves.
