Purple Line detour for Pershing Dr. in Silver Spring to begin March 24


Access to Pershing Drive from Bonifant Street in downtown Silver Spring will be blocked for about a month, beginning on or about March 24, 2025, the Maryland Transit Administration announced. The closure is necessary to complete track installation for the future Purple Line light rail system. During the closure, trash trucks and vehicles using private parking will have access from Wayne Avenue. Delivery trucks will be directed to dedicated loading zones on Bonifant, and on Georgia Avenue.


Watch for flagmen, and be prepared to follow their directions during the closure. Work will proceed on weekdays, and weekends as needed. The Pershing-Bonifant closure is anticipated to last for about four weeks. Should inclement weather occur, the reopening could be postponed.
