After working around the clock to clear snow, water, and debris from the roadway and shoulders, WSDOT will open the eastbound lanes of I-90 Snoqualmie Pass at 9 a.m. today. Westbound lanes will open by noon.

WSDOT also is working to open I-5 from exit 68 (11 miles south of Chehalis) to exit 88 (about 20 miles south of Olympia). Crews should know within the next few hours when this north-south route will open to traffic.
