With protests, rallies and other events planned during the weekend, downtown D.C. will generally not be as accessible by car.
Starting early Friday through late Sunday night, the District Department of Transportation will be enforcing a temporary no-parking zone along most streets from just north of Lafayette Square, around the White House and including the central portion of the National Mall.
Some streets will be temporarily closed to traffic as protests move through the area. But, if you’re a resident or doing essential work in an area that’s blocked, you should still be able to get through.
The parking ban begins 6 a.m. Friday and runs until just before midnight Monday.
