Washington Transportation Plan

The Washington Transportation Plan (WTP) is the state's long-range transportation plan, based on the Legislature's six policy goals. This 20-year vision for improving the state's transportation network is completed in two parts: policy and implementation.

Washington Transportation Plan 2040 & Beyond, Your Washington State Policy Plan (PDF) provides statewide policy recommendations to the Legislature. It was completed by the Washington State Transportation Commission (WSTC) in 2018.

Washington Transportation Plan Phase 2 – Implementation 2017-2040 (PDF) applies key policy recommendations from the 2035 Washington Transportation Plan (PDF) to further develop the state’s complex transportation system through four focus areas and eleven action items. 

Slow down – lives are on the line. 

In 2023, speeding continued to be a top reason for work zone crashes.

Even one life lost is too many.

Fatal work zone crashes doubled in 2023 - Washington had 10 fatal work zone crashes on state roads.

It's in EVERYONE’S best interest.

95% of people hurt in work zones are drivers, their passengers or passing pedestrians, not just our road crews.
