Page "Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge" Paragraph 4

The northernmost portion of the bridge was lowered to become an at-grade roadway with a new intersection at South Capitol Street and Potomac Avenue.

Nearly three blocks of elevated roadway, which previously acted as a barrier to access across South Capitol Street, were removed and replaced with at-grade intersections that will help knit the neighborhood together.

Additional improvements included replacing the deck, resurfacing and adding brand new street lights and guard rails.
