Beltway to get more spacious in Tysons Corner

Drivers on the Beltway in Tysons Corner will get a little more elbow room starting with Monday morning rush hour.

Virginia transportation officials will open a new bridge over Route 123 (Chain Bridge Road) at Beltway Exit 46. The bridge will be open for northbound drivers, who have been sharing the southbound bridge since last year.

Crews will also reopen the left lanes on Route 123 near the Beltway, bringing the road back to full capacity.
