Weekend Lane Closures on I-295 for Bridge Deck Resurfacing Work Beginning June 20, 2025
(WASHINGTON, DC) —The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is continuing bridge deck resurfacing work as part of the South Capitol Street Corridor project. As part of this effort, southbound I-295 will experience lane closures during the upcoming weekend.
Beginning at 9:00 PM on Friday, June 20 and continuing through 5:00 AM on Monday, June 23, two right lanes will be closed on southbound I-295. The closure will extend from the Howard Road overpass to just south of the Firth Sterling Avenue overpass.
There will be no full roadway closure; however, travel lanes will be restricted throughout the weekend. Motorists should expect delays, especially during peak travel periods, and are encouraged to plan accordingly.
Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead, allow for additional travel time, and consider alternative routes. DDOT thanks the traveling public for their patience as we work to improve the safety and longevity of this critical transportation link.
Traffic controls, including signage, will be in place to guide motorists 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.
