Leveraging your data - the Washington State DOT

The Washington State Department of Transportation has a long history of providing data to help drivers make decisions about when to drive and what to route to take.

Their holiday info on the Best Times To Travel Snoqualmie Pass During The Thanksgiving Holiday is another example of that.

They combined road data from the past several years to show, in the form of a bar graph, peak times.

Cool stuff.

    p.s. happy turkey day sans turkey!
