Moving around after dark

I work up in the Everett facility and it's typical for aircraft to be moved at night. Reason is the movements often require towing across a bridge crossing the state Highway 526. Wash Dept of Transport asked the company some years ago if they would restrict day use as it used to cause huge backups and accidents (rubberneckers gawking instead of driving).
