How did we get here?

  • DC has a city-wide transportation plan called “MoveDC” which sets DDOT’s long-term goals.
  • MoveDC is getting an update now! Give your feedback: https://movedc-dcgis.hub.arcgis.com/
  • MoveDC called for a special study of the boarder area between NW and NE. This study is called the “Crosstown Multimodal Transportation Study” and was completed in 2016.
  • A major finding of the Crosstown Study was community requests from the community for protected bike lanes.
  • In 2017 DDOT started planning Phase I of the requested Crosstown protected bike lanes, which opened in September on Irving and Kenyon
  • We are now planning Phase II, which will be on Park and Warder
