The Nuclear Security Summit taking place in Washington, D.C. on March 31 and April 1 will lead to some road closures and rerouting of public transportation.

Summit meetings are taking place at the White House, the State Department and the Washington Convention Center.

As a result, the yellow and green lines of the Metro will not stop at the Mt. Vernon Square stop starting around 8 p.m. on Wednesday and will reopen April 1 in the evening.

The security will also affect multiple bus stops in the area, starting 7 p.m., Wednesday, March 30, through noon, April 2.

Roads around the White House, State Department and Convention Center will be closed intermittently throughout the duration of the event.

The Secret Service and Metro have released statements with information regarding specific routes affected and recommended alternatives.
