Route Description
SR 150 begins at the intersection of Harris Avenue and Wapato Way in the unincorporated community of Manson on the north shore of Lake Chelan. The highway travels southeast parallel to the shore of Lake Chelan into Chelan and turns south to serve Lakeshore Park. Within Chelan, SR 150 is routed east onto Johnson Avenue before turning south onto Saunders Street and intersecting US 97 Alternate and beginning a short concurrency as Woodin Avenue. US 97 Alternate splits off, traveling northeast, and SR 150 continues southeast towards Chelan Falls and crosses over the Cascade and Columbia River Railroad. The highway ends at an intersection with US 97 north of the Beebe Bridge on the Columbia River.
Every year the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) conducts a series of surveys on its highways in the state to measure traffic volume. This is expressed in terms of average annual daily traffic (AADT), which is a measure of traffic volume for any average day of the year. In 2011, WSDOT calculated that between 2,300 and 10,000 vehicles per day used the highway, mostly in Downtown Chelan on Woodin Avenue.
