Starting Monday, March 17, the ramp from Georgetown Pike to southbound I-495 in Virginia will be closed nightly through Friday, March 21. The closure is scheduled between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. to facilitate noise wall work for the I-495 Express Lanes Northern Extension project.

They should exit Georgetown Pike onto southbound Balls Hill Road, turn left onto Lewinsville Road, then exit right onto southbound Rt. 123/Dolley Madison Boulevard before taking the on-ramp for southbound I-495.
In case of bad weather or other delays, the work schedule may change. Drivers are advised to proceed with caution and anticipate possible delays when traveling through this area.
