Temporary Lane Closures on I-395 on Jan. 29
(WASHINGTON, DC) — The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) will temporarily close lanes and shoulders on I-395 in preparation for the Long Bridge Project. Work is scheduled to take place during daytime off-peak hours (11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.) on Wednesday, January 29, 2025. These closure dates and times are contingent on suitable weather, field conditions, and/or adjacent construction activities.
-
I-395 between the Virginia State Line and the Case Bridge – A single left lane closure will be in place for southbound traffic on I-395 between the Case Bridge and the Virginia State Line on Wednesday, January 29, between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
-
I-395 Express Lanes between the Virginia State Line and the Case Bridge – The ramp from the northbound I-395 Express Lanes to northbound I-395 will be closed on Wednesday, January 29, between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. A posted detour will be provided to route traffic around the closure.
Traffic controls, including signage, will be in place to guide motorists and pedestrians safely through the work zones. All roadway users are advised to stay alert and be observant of signage and work zones while traveling in this area.
These closures are needed for construction activities associated with the Long Bridge Project. The project will add a new two-track railroad bridge next to the existing Long Bridge across the Potomac River, increasing rail capacity and alleviating a bottleneck for Amtrak and Virginia Railway Express. It will also create a new bicycle and pedestrian bridge over the river. The 1.8-mile project includes five new rail bridges and two new pedestrian/bicycle bridges.
