Custis Potholes

[americancyclo]

Oh yeah, those were from that huge storm (The Derecho?) that knocked down a bunch of trees. the huge one fell and put all those holes in the trail.

Custis is messed up in so many places.

Going west down the hill just after the turnoff for Uhle when you get to the bottom of the hill

Going west right before the turn onto the bridge over Glebe

etc…

I’ll try to figure out the exact locations (I can picture it in my head but when looking at a map I’m not sure) and report.

If others post reports, I’d be happy to pile on in reporting.

Sorry for the delay. Finally got around to doing this. Here’s what I reported:

Location 1: Custis Trail just east of N Vernon St
Problem 1: Large bumps in pavement on north side of trail that are dangerous for bikers and pedestrians, especially at night.

Location 2: Custis Trail – Between N Oak St and where N Pierce St would hit the trail; probably exactly where N Pierce Ct would hit the trail
Problem 2:There are 3 large pot holes on the westbound portion of the trail (north side). These holes are dangerous to cyclists and pedestrians alike. There are especially difficult to see at night.

Location 3: Custis Trail underneath the 21st ST N bridge on the north side
Problem 3: More large bumps that are difficult to see at night.
