14th Street Bridge Closed
Due to overcrowding, the Metropolitan Police Department is no longer allowing pedestrian access to the Mall from the 14th Street Bridge. Access can still be gained via The Memorial Bridge (the whole bridge), and the Key Bridge (on sidewalks and paths), according to Arlington County Police Department.

Instead of closing the bridge why not try controlling the amount of foot traffic going across to relieve overcrowding? DC's finest in action!

These transportation/security issues here now in DC ARE REALLY DISTURBING-WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN LATER, AFTER THE SWEARING-IN, I WONDER? DARE I SAY IT? COMPLETE AND UTTER CHAOS-AS IS NOT UNUSUAL IN MY NATIVE CITY ON NORMAL TRANSPORATION DAYS?
I LIKE IT UP HERE IN NW DC-IT'S SILENT! VERY PEACEFUL! AND WARM-SO WARM HERE INSIDE!
