State Roads and Highways

There are two agencies involved when shooting on state roads and highways: the Department of Transportation and the Washington State Patrol. The Department of Transportation authorizes the film permits while the State Patrol controls traffic and ensures safety on the set. Allow at least two weeks to process permit.
