Motorists Urged to Avoid Area and Choose Alternate Routes

As part of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge Project, weather permitting, two lanes of the Capital Beltway Inner Loop (I-95/495 South) between the U.S. Route 1 interchange and the Eisenhower Connector will be closed nightly, beginning Monday, January 4 through the week, to allow crews to perform emergency pothole repairs caused by recent inclement weather. Lanes closures will begin at 7:30 p.m. each evening, with traffic narrowed to one lane by 8:30 p.m.; all three lanes will be reopened no later than 5 a.m. the next morning. Motorists should expect back-ups and consider alternate routes to avoid delays.

Please use caution when traveling in this area. All construction-related work and dates are subject to change, depending on weather, material and contractor availability or other unforeseen conditions.
