If you’re planning on traveling through the Key Bridge and M Street, NW intersection at night in the next few days, maybe think again.
Excluding Friday and Saturday nights, there will be overnight lane closures at that intersection on Wednesday, July 24, Thursday, July 25, Monday, July 29, and Tuesday, July 30. It is not scheduled for Sunday, July 28, but that night is an alternate date. The lanes will be closed between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.
The District Department of Transportation is closing the lanes in order to install vehicle detecting equipment. DDOT says that bridge access will be open at all times.
Temporary signs will remind drivers and guide travelers in the area, and traffic barrels and cones will establish the closed lanes.
Remember that dates can change depending on weather, but right now this is the plan for closures.
