*The District Department of Transportation is opening a new flyover ramp that will carry 295 Southbound over a new interchange. There will be lane closures on Saturday so traffic can be shifted onto the ramp.
*Metro is also affected this weekend. On the Green and Yellow Lines, the Shaw, U Street and Columbia Heights stations are closed until Tuesday morning. Shuttle buses will operate between Mt. Vernon Square and Georgia Avenue.
