WASHINGTON — Whether you’re taking kids trick-or-treating Tuesday or planning to hit the town, D.C. police want residents to know about road closures and safe ways to get home on Halloween.
“It’s the time of year we’re very concerned about public safety and we don’t anticipate there will be any problems,” said D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham.
There are celebrations at each police district but Newsham expects it might be an earlier night than in years past.
“People have to go to bed early on Tuesday night to get up early to go to school or work on Wednesday, which makes for an earlier night for us usually,” he said.
Drivers should expect evening delays around road closures in Georgetown in the neighborhood grid above M street.
The road closures in Georgetown are bordered by Q and M streets NW and extend on both sides of Wisconsin Avenue from Georgetown University to Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway starting at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday through 3 a.m. Wednesday.
