DDOT Fails To Communicate Traffic Alterations, Residents Desire A "Dan Tangherlini Of DDOT"
We were reading a recent post over on Fifth & Oh regarding the sudden change from a two-way to a one-way street on the 600-700 block of O St. This reminded us of a no left turn sign that was suddenly posted in recent weeks on the northwest corner of 7th and H St in Gallery Place.
DDOT has a nice website where they publish all kinds of street closures and traffic alerts. In the past, they let us know about the repaving of certain parts of E St (a week after the unannounced repaving of the 600 block of E St). Unfortunately, most street alterations go unannounced until we find ourselves driving the wrong way on a newly designated one-way street!
We are left wondering: Wouldn’t it be nice to have a Dan Tangherlini for DDOT?

Am I missing something in your post? Dan Tangherlini was the head of DDOT for 6 years, and I don’t recall it being any better back then. http://www.wmata.com/about/board_gm/general_manager.cfm

that no turn sign should have been in place 6 years ago.
