From ALERT DC:

“The National Park Service will close Arlington Memorial Bridge to drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians from 9 p.m. on Friday, December 7, to 5 a.m. on Monday, December 10. Drivers, cyclists and pedestrians will need to use alternative routes to cross the Potomac River. Boaters in the Potomac River should approach the bridge with caution and avoid the area near its center span. You can learn more about how construction affects access to the bridge on a daily basis at: go.nps.gov/MemorialBridge

When the December 7-10 closure ends, the bridge will return to the current three lane traffic pattern.

That means there will be one constant eastbound and one constant westbound lane with a reversible third lane to accommodate rush hour traffic.

Over the next two and a half years, we expect a limited number of full bridge closures on weekends and occasional, short full closures of the bridge at night. The next full weekend closure is tentatively planned for January 2019.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
