    Oh, wait. I just realized that the two-waying of Fort Myer, and the moving of GWMP access from Lynn to Fort Myer would CLONE THE INTERSECTION OF DOOM.

    I don’t think we want two intersections of doom…

    I’m wondering why the IOD has a low stress, “Most Comfortable” rating on their chart.

    I enter/exit my building on N. Kent – so I’m happy to see the addition of bike lanes on Wilson & 19th (almost?) all the way to Kent. Oh, wait – 2030. I’ll be retired by then.

    I think providing comments about the near term needs for better bikeways through Rosslyn BEFORE 2030 is perfectly appropriate to mention.

    One of their questions,

    4. Which option would you prefer on N Lynn St?

    Does anyone notice that Option 2 has two-way car traffic but only a same-size, one-way bike lane (5′)? Not good. Option 2 also has less sidewalk space, which if used by in-bound bicyclists causes danger. And Option 2’s two-way traffic creates more danger to bicycles and pedestrians anyway. This would be a bad move all around for everyone but cars passing through.

    Vote “Option 1” on Q4!
