The District Department of Transportation will close lanes in and around Georgetown next week to conduct a series of bridge and tunnel safety inspections. On Oct. 6 and 7, DDOT will close the right lane of the on-ramp from I-66 to the Whitehurst Freeway. Also on Oct. 6, there will be alternating right lane closures on the Potomac Parkway, both southbound and northbound, under the I-66 ramp.
On Oct. 8, there will be alternating right and left lane closures on Massachusetts Ave. underneath Thomas Circle. DDOT will close lanes on Massachusetts Ave. eastbound before moving to the westbound side of the street.
Traffic controls will be in place to alert motorists as they approach these areas. DDOT is encouraging drivers to be mindful while traveling through these locations while they are under inspection.
