Megan Kanagy, Transportation Planner, DDOT
Alex Block, Infrastructure and Planning Manager, DowntownDC BIDThe DC Department of Transportation and the Downtown BID are seeking community input for proposed changes to the 7th Street roadway between Pennsylvania and Massachusetts avenues. DDOT wants to improve traffic flow by removing the northbound bus lane and striping a middle lane for left turns. The Downtown BID wants to take advantage of this opportunity to enhance the pedestrian experience by adding on a temporary basis some additional pedestrian space adjacent to the sidewalks (1) at crowded crosswalks and (2) in lieu of the parking lanes between G and H streets and by the Arena. The new pedestrian spaces would have street furniture such as planters added. The goals are to improve bus operations, reduce congestion, and improve pedestrian safety and comfort.
