November 2017 Road and Trail Conditions

[Greenbelt]

As of this morning, the new pavement on the ART between Armentrout road and the Bladensburg marina is finished and smooth as a baby’s butt. I think they removed both bollards from underneath the bridge, but I was so entranced by the fresh pavement I didn’t even notice and didn’t stop for pictures.

Rode it this afternoon. There is still one bollard under the bridge.

The new pavement is nice. There were a ton of root bumps before. It felt like the trail was widened slightly but that could just be my imagination.

The wind has blown down a tree over the Custis Trail just after N George Mason Dr, the tree is resting on the barrier wall over the trail and some branches are hanging down but it’s passable.

I reported it this morning since I saw it on my way in. I used the on-line reporting tool.

Yeah, I emailed the Arlington Trails link in the sticky at the top of this forum and got an auto-reply saying it would be forwarded on.

The downside of light downtown traffic is that it lets people do more stupid things. Had two oncoming drivers do u-turns in front of me and peds are randomly walking across the streets. I now actually wish that there was more traffic. Be extra aware today.

About a month and a half after being first used, the Bikeometer at The Wharf is not functioning.
