In my expereince from working downtown and marches - by the end of the day it is fine.

Also - as long as he is already on his way - he will be fine. There are a bunch of charter buses coming in - but if he typically commutes in - he knows the tricks for where to turn when he sees traffic backing up.

He should have different options for trip home and avoid the most crowded areas. May be a good day to work late.

Traffic is predicted to be horrible. Even extra time for metro is probably worth it.

Op - we don’t live close enough to a metro to make it worth it. It would add 30-40 mins on both sides of his trip. So unless traffic adds over an hour to his trip it is still more worthwhile to drive (I think).

I don’t think anyone knows but street closures are Extensive. At a minimum he should budget extra time.
