WSDOT - Traffic Services for Local Agencies

Traffic Services administers federal safety funding to cities and counties.

Subscribe to ask questions, exchange information, and build relationships with members of the local agency traffic engineering community in Washington State.

Traffic Services assists cities and counties collectively with traffic issues through the Urban Traffic Engineers Council (UTEC). We hold regular meetings in Western and Eastern Washington. We also send out messages about timely topics to an e-mail distribution list.

e-mail distribution list.

Traffic Services provides traffic engineering assistance to cities, counties, and tribal governments of any size and to other agencies. We serve as a contact point between local agencies, tribal governments, WSDOT, Federal Highway Administration, and other state agencies.
