In reply to the discussion: Der Fuehrer is shutting down DC [View all]onenote
(46,282 posts)42. The traffic closures are extensive but don't start until Thursday night
Heres a detailed breakdown. https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/transportation/extensive-dc-road-closures-planned-for-ufc-fight-at-white-house-heres-a-map/4114210/?amp=1
Some of the closures are limited in time for example Memorial Bridge will be closed for 12 hours noon to midnight on Friday. Its probably going to be a mess depending of course on the number of folks foolish enough to go downtown over the weekend
