Guantanamo protesters may be marching from the White House to the Supreme Court today, but tomorrow is the big ‘un, the annual March for Life. The anti-abortion crowd will once again wend its way around the National Mall on Friday as they mark the anniversary of Roe. v. Wade.

As such, the entire Mall area is best avoided by motorists during the day, and the following streets will be closed from at least 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.: 7th Street between I and F streets NW; F Street between 7th and 10th streets NW; 10th Street between F Street and Constitution Avenue NW; Constitution Avenue between 10th and 12th streets NW; 7th Street between Constitution Avenue and Jefferson Street NW; Constitution between 7th Street NW and First Street NE; and First Street between Constitution Avenue NE and East Capitol Street SE.

Traffic delays should be expected on both Independence and Constitution avenues, along with heavy pedestrian traffic at the Smithsonian, L’Enfant Plaza and Federal Triangle Metro stations.
