Your voice matters. The park is preparing an Environmental Assessment (EA) that explains the proposed work and its potential impacts. Once the EA is released, there will be a public comment period. You’ll be able to review the document and share your thoughts. Comment Period: July 15 – Sept. 9, 2025.

The National Park Service (NPS) continues work on the North Parkway Rehabilitation Project, with new travel impacts beginning June 12.

The National Park Service (NPS) plans to reopen the George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) before the Wednesday morning rush hour.  

A 2.5-mile stretch of the George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) between Belle View Boulevard and Alexandria Avenue remains closed as National Park Service (NPS) and contracted crews continue emergency clearing and safety operations following a powerful storm on Friday evening that brought heavy rainfall and winds reaching 70–80 mph.

The North Parkway Rehabilitation Project will close the exit to and from Turkey Run Park from northbound George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) starting April 1 through late April, weather permitting.
