What is the most active freight lane in the Pacific Northwest?
Seattle–Portland on I-5 is the highest-density lane in the PNW — ~175 miles with constant freight in both directions. Seattle–Los Angeles on I-5 is the major long-haul corridor. Spokane–Seattle on I-90 is the Eastern Washington produce highway during apple, cherry, and potato season.
When is Eastern Washington produce season?
Eastern Washington produce peaks June–November: cherries (June–July, Yakima and Wenatchee), apples (August–November, the nation's largest apple crop), and potatoes (September–October). This generates strong westbound reefer demand from the Yakima Valley and Columbia Basin to Seattle, Portland, and beyond.
