On Interstate 395 in Virginia, the first of four weekend lane closures is underway and will last until Sunday afternoon.
According to the Virginia Department of Transportation, work zones this weekend will block up to two northbound main lanes between Duke Street and the Pentagon. The ramps from Duke Street that lead northbound onto I-395 are also expected to be blocked. A single southbound main lane will probably be blocked for much of the weekend as well.
On Interstate 66, only one left lane is getting by bridge work on the inbound Roosevelt Bridge through Saturday afternoon. Slow traffic should be expected through Rosslyn on both I-66 and U.S. Route 50.
Also, rehabilitation crews are blocking the right exit from northbound D.C. Route 295 onto eastbound Pennsylvania Avenue for most of Saturday.
The inbound Whitehurst Freeway was blocked Saturday morning for roadwork but has since reopened.
