Traffic Alert For RC Parkway

It's back.

I'm not talking about spring. It's time for a new lane closure on the Rock Creek Parkway. The National Park Service today will close the right southbound lane at all hours for about three weeks. This is between P Street NW and Pennsylvania Avenue, the work zone that became infamous with commuters last year. Three travel lanes will remain open, the park service says. The P Street ramps will remain open, the park service says.

The Federal Highway Administration, which is doing the year long parkway repair project in conjunction with the park service, has a Web page that describes the work.
