Overnight Closures Planned for the 11th Street Bridge Exit Ramp To M Street, SE and the Navy Yard Inbox x


Detours Will Apply While Ramp Remains Closed

(Washington, D.C.) Starting tomorrow night  the exit ramp from the northbound 11th Street Bridge to M Street, SE and the Navy Yard will be closed overnight.  The exit ramp will also be closed overnight on February 20, 21 and 22.  Each night, motorists will encounter a single lane closure on the exit ramp starting at 8 pm, followed by full closure of the ramp from 10 pm to 5 am the following morning. The scheduled closures will allow the DDOT to install an overhead sign structure at the exit ramp and complete underground utility work along the roadway.

During the ramp closure, signed detours will be posted.
