MEDIA ALERT: West Glebe Road Bridge Ribbon Cutting

The public and the media are invited to a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of the West Glebe Road Bridge Reconstruction project.  

The event concludes a year of construction to rebuild the upper deck of the bridge to ensure safe operational condition, improve bike and pedestrian accessibility with new sidewalks and bike lanes, and enhance the overall experience on the bridge with artwork by Vicki Scuri. 

This project was a partnership between Arlington County and the City of Alexandria to maintain safe passage between the two communities for all residents regardless of mode of transportation.
