Opponents of the planned 250-foot triumphal arch project express concerns about potential disruptions to military burials at Arlington National Cemetery both during its construction and once it is completed.
As the proposed site work nears, veterans and members of the Democratic Party are intensifying their efforts to halt construction. They argue that President Donald Trump’s planned arch is illegal and would negatively impact the solemn experience of visiting Arlington National Cemetery.
On September 4, bicyclists were seen riding around Memorial Circle, the proposed site for the triumphal arch, illustrating the ongoing public presence and activity in the area.
