Roadwork scheduled overnight Friday on 295

WASHINGTON — Roadwork is scheduled on northbound 295 starting at 8 p.m. on Friday at the location where drivers can go right toward Capitol Hill on the 11th Street Bridge or veer left to remain on 295.

Crews will be alternating lane closures in the two lane span — at times only the right will get by, and then only the left.

The work is scheduled overnight Friday until 5 a.m. Saturday.

In addition, access to Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue from the old 11th Street Bridge will be blocked, and Good Hope Road SE will be closed between Martin Luther King Jr Avenue and Anacostia Drive.

These closures are scheduled to take place overnight Friday between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m.

To access Martin Luther King Jr Avenue, motorists will be directed onto southbound 295 to Howard Road.
