FAIRFAX — (Press release) Drivers should expect lane closures on the Interstate 395 general purpose lanes beginning the weekend of April 26-28, and continuing for at least four consecutive weekends, depending on the weather.

The weekend closures, which will occur from Friday nights until Monday mornings, are needed for crews to safely rehabilitate five bridges along I-395 between the Springfield interchange and Washington, D.C. line. Motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes. If travel in this area is unavoidable, drivers should use caution and plan extra travel time.
