*Alternate Routes during Heavy Traffic Times:

During work-day afternoon rush hours I-5 northbound gets slow. Usually from about 2:00 to about 6:45 the traffic can be pretty bad, with stop and go traffic common during much of that time. So at those times I suggest that you avoid I-5 and use alternative routes.
MLK Bld. is an excellent alternative to I-5 if you are driving north. If you are coming from SE Portland then NE 33rd Dr. might be a good alternative. If coming from further east then driving west on Marine Dr. is a good route.
If coming north on MLK Bld. instead of I-5, follow the signs for Marine Drive east and then procede as above.
