From SaferConnAveDC:
“Two and a half years ago (12/15/2021), Mayor Bowser announced that she was moving forward with Concept C, a plan to reshape the footprint of Connecticut Avenue in Ward 3 by removing the reversible lane, lowering speed limits, and adding bike and bus and pedestrian friendly design changes to the streetscape: “After considering several options, it was clear that this design best meets the needs of our city and moves us closer to a greener DC, a safer DC, and a DC that is less reliant on cars.”
The redesign received near-unanimous support from all the ANCs, across three different terms. And yet, last week, the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) announced that they were removing bike lanes from the plan without seeking community input, running counter to the notion of community engagement that DDOT prides itself on.
This is a key opportunity to transform a corridor and help the city reach its climate goals by reducing the number of trips made by car. Additionally, numerous studies have shown that bike lanes do not negatively affect businesses, as people who use bicycles are more likely to frequent local stores. Adding bicycle lanes to Connecticut Avenue would also help improve safety along the corridor.
We urge the Mayor and the Council to act expeditiously to restore the protected bike lanes to the redesign of Connecticut Avenue. If you agree and would like to see the city move forward with the bike lane plan, please join us in signing this petition hosted by WABA here.

“Dear PoPville,
Last fall, I was at The Wydown on H Street NE, and my bike lock broke. I propped up the lock, but when another rider locked up their bike next to me, the ruse was exposed and the pieces fell apart on the street. The rider came into Wydown, apologized (he didn’t need to!), and mentioned that he could run home and grab a spare bike lock for me. He VERY kindly did so. (more…)
