Tom,

Based on your Internet site, it appears that River Road/190 is only closed
in Potomac, and there is a bypass around the closure.  Since I came in from
the north via Route 28 and Seneca, I didn't see any signs.

So it looks like there's no problem on River Road either from the north
(Seneca) and or the south (Potomac).  Sorry about that.

-Joe

On the way out River Road, I passed at least three signs announcing closures

of River Road tomorrow in Potomac. I found the signage terribly confusing. 
Here's a link to some sketchy information on the internet:

There's a link to a map showing the section of River Road that's closing, 
apparently from 10 a.m. until noon.
