Metro Just Can’t Catch a Break – But Better Bus Service Should be Coming to 16th Street

s4bus

A reader sends around 9:45am from 16th and Harvard St, NW: “one of the shiny new s line buses just broke down mid-route.”

In happier 16th Street bus news DDOT’s @WeMoveDC tweeted:

“We are proposing peak-hour peak-direction bus lanes, requiring a reversible lane the length of the corridor. #16thStreetBus”

Off-board fare payment and all-door boarding are also proposed for the #16thStreetBus Lines.”

“The peak-hour/peak-direction bus lane would save 2.5 minutes of travel time, the most of all of the improvements. #16thStreetBus”

“We are still going through the improvements for time savings and will have more info about these at the Jan 21 meeting #16thStreetBus”

“Will have more exact numbers at Jan 21 mtg, but we estimate a 4-7 min improvement in travel time w/ preferred alternative #16thStreetBus”

“We hope to keep #16thStreetBus headways to 2 min, otherwise you see bunching.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
