Multi-Use Trail Improvements: 14th Street Bridge to East Basin Drive
The project will improve the existing multi-use trail from the 14th Street Bridge to East
Basin Drive. The trail is a primary commuter route for bicyclists and pedestrians from
Virginia, and is used by tourists accessing the Jefferson Memorial. There is a bikeshare
station located at the intersection of East Basin Drive and the trail. The project will widen
and repave the trail, add safety enhancements, increase the width of crosswalk ramps,
relocate utilities and signage from within the trail alignment.Improvements to the Mount Vernon Trail at Theodore Roosevelt Island Trailhead
The project will realign and widen the northern terminus of the Mount Vernon Trail,
resurface the trailhead parking lot; separate the trail from the parking lot with a grade
separation; and install bike racks, directional and interpretive signage, and water
fountains. The goal of the project is to improve trail user safety through improvements to
the Mount Vernon Trail trailhead, which is the convergence of several significant regional
trails.
