DDOT proposed a protected cycletrack and protected bike lanes on Florida last night as an interim safety project.

All of the meeting materials should be posted online later today, but in the interim, here’s the handout summarizing the plans in case anyone’s interested.

I’m not sure “Like”-ing this post is the right “emotion” but the pleading guilty to manslaughter is something. Won’t bring Dave back but still some small offering at justice.

Had to ride Florida Avenue from Bladensburg Rd NE to 9th Street NW yesterday and saw the bike lane they installed. What a trash-filled, debris filled, POS. It’s about 30 inches wide and unridable. Between the bollard are horizontal barriers, so once you’re in it you’re in it. No way out and no bail outs. It’s unacceptable even as a temporary measure.
