School is back in session and KIRO 7 narrowed down the top congested school traffic per county.

Starting with King County, Wildwood Elementary took the top spot in the most back-to-school traffic increases. Roads around this school see an 8% increase when class is back in session.

Pishue says there’s been a lot of growth in the area, and Avondale Road sees congestion between its regular traffic and freight deliveries, and adding on school means more drivers, more buses, and more congestion. “We saw a 30% increase in travel times around that school. Most of that delay was on Purdy Drive Northwest so there could be a lot of reasons for that, but that’s just something interesting to note,” Pishue said.
