I-395 between the Virginia State Line and the Case Bridge – A single right lane closure will be in place for northbound traffic on I-395 between the Virginia State Line and the Case Bridge on Wednesday, February 12, between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
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.
