Metro Station Canopy Construction

6/9/2023

Starting on the night of June 11 and continuing until June 30, there will be traffic congestion on Memorial Ave. due to construction at the Arlington Cemetery Metro Station. Two-way traffic will be maintained, but lanes will be shifted to the south and there will be a single lane in each direction. No parking will be permitted on the south curb lane from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m.

We encourage visitors to take Metro or use rideshare services. Family pass holders may enter through the Service Complex Gate Monday through Saturday. The Service Complex Gate is not accessible on Sundays.

Those attending funerals are encouraged to arrive early due to traffic congestion.
