WASHINGTON — A host of traffic changes are in place for Tuesday night’s MLB All-Star Game. They include road closures, new parking restrictions and transit modifications.

“It’s a big summer for sports fans in Washington,” D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser said last week. “As always, throughout the All-Star Week festivities, our goal is to ensure the safety of residents and visitors.”

Police Chief Peter Newsham said the city and its police department are ready with increased staffing of both uniformed and plain clothed officers to monitor activity around All-Star related events and closures.

“D.C. is host to multiple large-scale events on an annual basis,” he said. “The Metropolitan Police Department is prepared to facilitate a safe and memorable All-Star week for all those participating.”

Asked about terrorism, Newsham said the District was facing “no credible threats.”

Bowser said planning for the All-Star Game started way back in 2014.

“DDOT has mobilized across the agency to meet Mayor Bowser’s goal to keep visitors safe and our transportation network moving for all of the events during All-Star Week,” DDOT Director Jeff Marootian said.

Overall, D.C.’s City Manager Rashad Young said $5 million was invested, but the city expects to spend around $4.4 million hosting the All-Star Game. The return is much greater, he pointed out, projected at $70 million.

At the news conference, officials strongly encouraged residents to visit the sportscapital.dc.gov website for more information.
