Gray Notebook

Dive into the Gray Notebook, our agency's quarterly performance and accountability report. 

The Gray Notebook is temporarily paused while WSDOT redesigns and reimagines this important performance analysis tool. The expected relaunch date is Spring 2026.

The Gray Notebook is our agency's quarterly performance and accountability report. Each edition features quarterly, semi-annual and annual updates on key agency functions and provides in-depth analysis of topics that align with Washington's transportation goals as well as our strategic plan.

Project delivery

Quarterly updates on the delivery of projects funded by the 2015 Connecting Washington transportation package, the 2005 Transportation Partnership Account package, the 2003 Nickel transportation funding package, and by Pre-existing Funds, appear in the Gray Notebook's Stewardship section.

Policy goals

WSDOT's Statewide Transportation Policy Goals is an overview of the key performance indicators for the six transportation policy goal areas. The section shows the current and previous status for each measure and includes five-year trend lines to provide additional perspective.

Slow down – lives are on the line.

Drive the posted speeds, they’re there for your safety.

Phone down, eyes up.

Pay attention – both to workers directing you and to surrounding traffic.

Stay calm

Expect delays, leave early or take an alternate route if possible; no appointment is worth risking someone’s life.
