A block of Alexandria that’s seen sudden repairs in recent years is undergoing something a little more-planned over the next week.
Maintenance on the rail bridge traveling over King Street near the eponymous Metro station will close the underpass tonight from 10 p.m.-5 a.m. tomorrow. It will also be closed the same times from Tuesday, Aug. 17, to Wednesday, Aug. 25. The underpass will be closed for both vehicle and pedestrian/cyclist traffic.
If you’ve seen it before, the nightly bridge work has been going on since last Friday (Aug. 6).
TRAFFIC: Due to needed bridge maintenance work, the King St. underpass at the CSX/METRO bridge will be closed nightly between the hours of 10PM and 5AM Friday, Aug. 6 – Wed. Aug. 11 and Tues. Aug 17 – Wed. Aug 25. Detours in place. Please avoid the area during these closures. pic.twitter.com/taM4VGBmNb
