Emergency repairs will be made on a leaking valve replacement today in Alexandria’s Parkfairfax neighborhood, and it could result in some discolored water or no water at all for a short period.
The utility advised residents in the areas of Preston Road, Coryell Lane, and Martha Custis Drive might see “discolored or cloudy water, low water pressure, or no water” from the time that the project starts Tuesday, Sept. 2 at 9 p.m. until it concludes at 6 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 3.
The northbound I-395 ramp to Shirlington Circle will be closed tomorrow night, with traffic diverted to Parkfairfax.
The Virginia Department of Transportation said the closure is expected to last from 9 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 7, to 4 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 8, for rehabilitation work on the Shirlington Circle south rotary bridge.
Drivers headed to Shirlington will have to take a detour through Alexandria next week, offering Arlingtonians a glimpse at life once Alexandria finally annexes Shirlington.
The northbound ramp off I-395 to Shirlington Circle will be closed overnight Monday night (Sept. 16) and Tuesday night (Sept. 17) into the following mornings next week. The closure will force drivers onto Martha Custis Drive in the Parkfairfax neighborhood.
