Attaching Linq To Sql Datacontext To Httpcontext In Business Layer

I need my linq to sql datacontext to be available across my business/data layer for all my repository objects to access. However since this is a web app, I want to create and destroy it per request. I'm wondering if having a singleton class that can lazily create and attach the datacontext to current HttpContext would work. My question is: would the datacontext get disposed automatically when the request ends? Below is the code for what I'm thinking. Would this accomplish my purpose: have a thread-safe datacontext instance that is lazily available and is automatically disposed when the request ends?

public class SingletonDC
{
public static NorthwindDataContext Default
{
get
{
NorthwindDataContext defaultInstance = (NorthwindDataContext)System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Items["datacontext"];
if (defaultInstance == null)
{
defaultInstance = new NorthwindDataContext();
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Items.Add("datacontext", defaultInstance);
}
return defaultInstance;
}
}
}
