[ONGOING] P Street Northwest Ramp to Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway is closed
The P Street Northwest Ramp to Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway is closed due to sinkholes on the ramp that may compromise the roadway. Drivers should seek alternate routes to access the parkway. See DC Water's Traffic Advisory (June 27) and the NPS news release (July 2) for more information. Update (Aug. 28): NPS is working with the Federal Highway Administration to assess the defect in the stormwater management system that caused the sinkholes and confirm a proposed repair solution.
