DC WASA Work to Impact Traffic on Rock Creek Parkway

January 22, 2010

The DC Water and Sewer Authority (DC WASA) will be performing construction, beginning on Monday, February 1, that will require a temporary lane closure on Rock Creek Parkway for the next few months. The closure will be limited to off-peak hours, but traffic delays are still possible and motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes if possible.

The planned work is part of the Rock Creek Sewer Separation and Water Main Replacement project, CSO 037. Disruption should be expected between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. and the project will take a minimum of 60 days to complete.

During construction, the northbound lane on Rock Creek Parkway will be closed for about 500 feet at Waterside Drive, N.W. Standard traffic control devices will be in place.

DC Water will be doing construction as part of a sanitary sewer rehabilitation project on Clara Barton Parkway in Maryland from Sept 8 - Oct 10, 2025, which may cause delays inbound near the I-495 Beltway interchange. One lane will be closed in the work zone to reline an 800-foot section of the sewer line, known as the Potomac Inteceptor. Access to the inner and outer loops of the Beltway will remain available. Additional lane closure may be necessary intermittently through Oct 31, 2025.
