Soumya Dey, DDOT Director of Research & Technology Transfer and Project Manager for Park DC: Penn Quarter/Chinatown Pilot Project
DDOT’s Penn Quarter/Chinatown Multi-modal Value Pricing Pilot Project (also known as Park DC: Penn Quarter/Chinatown Pilot Project) has received funding from the Federal government to use the study area – bounded by 11th, 3rd, H, and E streets – as a laboratory to test various technologies to better manage curbside parking and reduce congestion resulting from cars ‘circling the blocks’ looking for a parking space. To test options for achieving these goals in the pilot area DDOT will increase parking availability by adjusting the cost of the public parking spaces and will provide drivers with tools to find available parking spaces. The program is also expected to reduce congestion, increase safety, and encourage use of other transportation modes. DDOT wants to hear your comments on how metered parking in the study area impacts your business and quality of life as a resident before taking the next steps.
Please respond if you plan on attending this meeting as it will help our host prepare. RSVP via email to my new email address by noon Monday, February 23:
