Ft. Belvoir, Va. –– It’s a parking lot outside Ft. Belvoir right now, as delays on Interstate 95 and the scheduled closure of the military installation’s main gate this morning have made for a commuter nightmare.
Ft. Belvoir closed its Tulley Gate at Richmond Highway (U.S. 1), the main entrance to the base, for dedication ceremony for Army Staff Sgt. Jon Linde, who was killed in the line of duty in 2007.
A visitor’s center at the main gate is being named after Linde.
“It’s been a horrendous day for traffic in the area with delays on 95. We planned the closure of this gate to be about an hour this morning to honor the memory of the fallen soldier,” said Ft. Belvoir spokesman Travis Edwards.
Drivers who needed to access the base were told to go to the Pence Gate, about one mile north on U.S. 1.
Traffic on I-95 was backed up for much of the morning from Prince William Parkway to the Springfield mixing bowl, and then from Springfield onto I-395 to the 14th Street Bridge.
Drivers encountered a new traffic pattern at the bridge this morning as crews work to rehabilitate the structure.
