MAP: The Million MAGA March Is Necessitating Crazy Street Closures in DC

Throngs of far right-wingers are expected to march in the city on Saturday, prompting some road closures downtown. It’s unclear how many people are expected to show, but going off this DC Police traffic advisory, city officials are prepping for a massive turnout.

Closures extend from 3rd Street NW to 18th Street NW, and from L Street NW to Independence Ave SW. Basically, draw a box from the Capitol, to Judiciary Square, to Farragut Square, to the Tidal Basin, and assume pretty much every roadway encompassed in it will be blocked off.

Our advice: Just stay away. Militia groups are expected to show (Alex Jones is allegedly bringing a battle tank), and experts have told Washingtonian that clashes between protesters and counterprotesters could get violent.

Here’s a map of the streets that are closed (in black):
