Traffic going south on Interstate 95 to Virginia should use Interstate 495 West, towardSilver Spring, because portions of Interstate 495 East are closed due to flooding.
Drivers should plan for extra travel time for the alternate route, the Maryland State Highway Administration said in a Thursday-evening statement.
All lanes on Interstate 495 at Telegraph Road and the Woodrow Wilson Bridge are closed because of standing water.
Detours are set up on the Maryland side of the bridge for travelers who use Interstate 495 East.
