There's finally some context for the vague message regarding a lane closure on River Road in Bethesda on a Maryland State Highway Administration digital signboard. Washington Gas is preparing to replace a valve under River Road starting June 5, 2023. Contrary to the SHA signs citing Western Avenue as the starting point of the closure, the work area will actually be the southbound lanes of River Road (MD 190) between Brookdale Road and Western Avenue.
The project is expected to take 6-8 weeks to complete. Work will be performed between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM Monday through Saturday. One lane in each direction will be open to traffic at all times during the project. Left turns from southbound River to eastbound Western Avenue will be restricted, as will left turns from northbound River to Brookdale Road. Follow signage and flagmen direction at all times during the project. You may want to take an alternate route in and out of the District during this time.
