Washington State 511 Information

Washington state incrementally implemented its 511 service starting in 2002 and announced its launch in 2003. The 511 program was retired in 2023 due to a decline in the telephone part of use and increase in web-based use. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) still operates a website with much of the same information the old telephone system provided.
