Viadoom is coming. Starting January 11, 2019, Seattle’s Alaskan Way Viaduct will close without a replacement for three weeks. This means the 90,000 cars that use the route every day will be forced onto area streets and I-5. Traffic, and patience, will suffer.

“You West Seattle drivers are going to take it the worst during this closure,” warned Sully. Check out the full video above for details on what you can do once Viadoom hits.
