sorry just bite the bullet its hit or miss 5 vs 405.
you might check in with waze just before renton,i got lucky and stayed on 5 right through downtown without ever slowing thanks to waze 3 years ago
I avoid Seattle whenever possible. While 405 isn't perfect, it is a lot more "RV Friendly" than going through the bottleneck and lousy road surface of downtown Seattle.
If I HAVE to go through Seattle with my TT I try to time my Southbound trips for morning hours and Northbound to afternoon. Reason is that the "Express Lanes" are Southbound during morning hours until around 11:00 AM and Northbound from around Noon until late night.
Also, there is construction on I-5 near downtown over the weekends from Friday through early Monday AM.
405 during weekdays is not too bad during hours of 10:00 AM to ~ 2:30 PM.
