Traffic Alert for Immediate Release Tuesday, February 4, 2003 Structural Deficiencies Force Restrictions on 31st Street Bridge Over C&O Canal in Georgetown Because of structural deficiencies, the roadway on the 31st Street bridge over the C&O Canal in Georgetown has been narrowed by installing concrete traffic barriers to prevent vehicles from driving or parking near the curb. An engineering inspection showed that the steel beams under the curb lanes have deteriorated. With these limits, the bridge is safe. The Department of Transportation is planning to expedite the full replacement of the bridge. For more information, contact Bill Rice at (202) 671-2004 or (202) 437-7787.
