Temporary Overnight Closure of Westbound New York Avenue NW November 30, 2020
(Washington, DC) - The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) will implement a temporary overnight closure of westbound of New York Avenue NW between First Street NW and 4th Street NW. Construction activity will begin at 10:00 p.m. on Monday, November 30, 2020 and conclude at 2:00 a.m. on December 1, 2020, weather dependent.
This work is required to install a new traffic signal mast arm over westbound New York Avenue NW at the intersection of New Jersey Avenue NW as a part of the Safety Improvements on New Jersey Avenue NW project. Westbound New York Avenue NW will be detoured around the closure, as exhibited in the graphics below.
DDOT will provide variable message boards to alert the traveling public to this detour. Signs and traffic control flaggers will also be present along the detour route to guide motorists safely around the closure. Motorists should expect delays due to the lane closures, and are advised to stay alert and be observant of signage and road work crews while traveling in this area.
