MCLEAN, Va.— The George Washington Memorial Parkway has reopened. Drivers should continue to stay alert while driving through the construction zone, observe traffic signs, respect the 40-mph speed limit, expect delays through narrow travel lanes, and plan alternate routes. Due to weather, the traffic configuration will be single lane through the construction corridor both North and South bound. Vehicles with a gross vehicle weight over 10,000 lbs. are always prohibited from using the parkway.  
 
Thank you for your patience.
