​Motorists Can Expect Night Double-Lane Closures for Two Evenings 

(January 22, 2024) – The Maryland Department of Transportation’s State Highway Administration will make repairs to the MD 355 (Rockville Pike) bridge over the outer loop of  I-495 (Capital Beltway)​ beginning on January 24 near Bethesda. The repairs should be complete by Friday, January 26, weather permitting. 

Crews will close two right lanes on Monday, January 29 between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. Tuesday and two left lanes at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, January 30 until 5 a.m. on Wednesday, January 31. Drivers should expect delays and add extra driving time during the repair project.

The State Highway Administration’s contractor, F.O. Day of Gaithersburg, will use arrow boards and barrels to safely guide motorists through the work zone. 

The State Highway Administration appreciates our customers’ patience with lane closures while we complete this necessary work to maintain and improve the transportation system. Drivers are asked to slow down in the work zone for the safety of all drivers and the crews working to improve our roadways. ​
