Traveling for Labor Day weekend in Seattle? What to know as travelers hit the road, skies

The Washington State Department of Transportation is warning drivers to expect heavy traffic statewide this holiday weekend due to construction and major events. Most highway construction, including work on the I-90 Vantage Bridge, will be paused to keep lanes open through Tuesday. Major regional events like the Apple Cup, Seattle Mariners games, Bumbershoot, and the Washington State Fair are expected to draw large crowds and cause delays.
