​Two Lanes will be Closed During Work Hours; Expect Delays 

(February 20, 2024) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration will close two lanes on Kensington Parkway and Jones Bridge Road/Connecticut Avenue (MD 185)​ in Chevy Chase on Wednesday, February 21, for traffic signal installation. The work is expected to begin at 9 a.m. and will be complete by 2 p.m., weather permitting. 

On Wednesday, crews will begin with a closure to the left lane of Kensington Parkway, both northbound and southbound, then alternate to the right lane. Flaggers will be on hand to guide motorists through the closure.  

The State Highway Administration works hard to maintain safe traffic mobility in work zones for our crews as well as our customers. Drivers need to stay alert, focus on driving, and look for reduced speed limits as well as other traffic pattern changes.  

Please drive like you work here and slow down in construction zones. 

​Motorists in need may dial #77 on their mobile devices for roadside assistance.
