[AlertDC] The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) announces upcoming ramp closures as part of the ongoing rehabilitation of the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge; a critical infrastructure project aimed at improving safety and extending the lifespan of one of the District’s most heavily traveled bridges.
Beginning at 9:00 p.m. on Friday, September 12, 2025, and continuing through 5:00 a.m. on Monday, September 15, 2025, the following ramps will be temporarily closed to facilitate resurfacing activities:
• Westbound Constitution Avenue to Interstate 66 (I-66)
• Northbound Potomac River Freeway (Ohio Drive) to Westbound I-66
Detour signage will be in place to guide motorists safely around the affected areas. DDOT advises all travelers to plan ahead, allow extra travel time, and consider alternate routes during the closure period.
These ramp closures are the first in a series of ramp and roadway closures that will occur over the next several weeks to rehabilitate the ramps and roadways on the east (DC) end of the bridge. Notifications of those closures will be forthcoming. These closures are essential to allow for the safe and efficient completion of bridge resurfacing work. |
