Streetcar work to cause delays
The D.C. Department of Transportation is continuing to install tracks for the Anacostia streetcar line, causing delays and detours at South Capitol Street and Firth Sterling Avenue.
Traffic at the intersection has been reduced to one lane in each direction. Beginning at 9:30 a.m. Monday, traffic from the Naval Annex on Defense Boulevard will be prohibited from turning south on South Capitol Street and must turn left on Barry Road or right on Firth Sterling.
Construction is expected to end Nov. 21, but work will continue on South Capitol and Firth Sterling until mid-January. Motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes.
