The National Park Service has closed a portion on the Mount Vernon Trail due to damage to the wooden pedestrian bridge located just south of Ford’s Landing.
Both sides of the bridge have been damaged and deemed unsafe. It is unclear at this time why the bridge sustained such damage.
The Park Service advises Mount Vernon Trail users are advised to use Union, Franklin and Royal streets to connect to the Mount Vernon Trail.
