Good afternoon, everyone. Today we distributed the attached notice to residents and businesses on T Street NW, U Street NW, Thomas Street NW, and on Rhode Island Avenue NW between First Street NW to 2nd Street NW.



Traffic/Parking Restrictions on T Street NW

January 29, 2019

(Washington, DC) – DC Water will perform below ground investigations to assess the locations of underground utilities on the 100 block of T Street NW as part of the Northeast Boundary Tunnel Project.  The work will consist of drilling holes and small excavations in T Street NW to locate possible utility structures. 

Work will begin on or about February 4, 2019, weather permitting, and continue for approximately three weeks between 9:00 AM and 3:30 PM.  The work will occur between 113 T Street NW and 143 T Street NW. Parking restrictions on T Street will be in place. During work hours, access to T Street NW from westbound Rhode Island Avenue NW will be closed. After 3:30 PM, crews will temporarily restore the roadway to allow through travel and normal parking to occur overnight until the next working day. Signs will be prominently posted outlining the activities and limits of parking restrictions.

Important Information

•             People who live or work near the affected location will notice additional construction equipment and personnel as well as noise associated with construction activities.
•             Commuters and pedestrians will notice road signs and/or flagging personnel directing them around the work site.

The Northeast Boundary Tunnel is the largest component of the Clean Rivers Project and will start south of RFK Stadium and extend north to Rhode Island Avenue NE and west to 6th Street NW. When complete, the approximately five-mile long tunnel will significantly reduce chronic flooding in areas it serves, as well as reduce the amount of combined sewer overflows into the Anacostia River by 98%.
