Mt. Vernon Ave Bridge: Pre-Construction Work Begins August 25

Beginning August 25, construction crews will begin demolition on the median of the Mt. Vernon Avenue Bridge across Four Mile Run. During this time, the middle lanes on the bridge will be closed to traffic reducing the roadway from four lanes to two lanes while work is underway. This work will last for about two weeks.

During this time, the entrance to Four Mile Run Park and the north driveway of the Mount Vernon Plaza will be right-turn entrance/exit only. The south driveway of Mount Vernon Plaza will remain unchanged.

As this work is completed, crews are also conducting duct bank installation work on the bridge and on the intersection of Arlington Ridge Road and South Glebe Road. This work will last through early-mid September. All pedestrian detours during this time will be clearly marked with signs.
