NOV 1 ROAD CLOSURES NEAR NATIONAL AIRPORT

> On Tuesday, November 1 at Reagan National Airport (DCA), a special event near terminal A will necessitate roadway closures to ensure public safety. Airport passengers should plan ahead before being picked up or dropped off between 11:00 a.m. and 12:00 noon.
>
> Traffic driving towards the departures and arrivals ramps of all terminals will be severely congested as four lanes merge to one, then follow a detour around the event site. Traffic could also be blocked for brief intervals along the detour route (see map below):
>
> To avoid severe roadway delays between 11:00 am and 12:00 noon, consider the following alternatives:
>
> 1. Use Metro. The airport is located on the system's Blue and Yellow line.
>
> 2. Avoid driving up to the terminals. Instead, keep left as you enter the airport and follow signs toward the parking garages. Drop off or pick up passengers within the hourly parking garage closest to your terminal.
>
> 3. Avoid the road closure window. Plan to arrive by car either before 11:00 am or after 12:00 noon.
>
> 4. Board a taxi instead of having a car pick you up. Use the regular taxi boarding areas at each terminal.
