That's peak vibrant urbanism though |
That's exactly how most of us feel about streeteries in 2024. |
| Is there an update on the competing petitions between Eddie Cano and Rosemary Bistro? Also will Rosemary Bistro close the streetery at end of 2024? So odd that there was so much vitriol and now, silence from all parties. Also curious how the traffic has been in mornings. |
Traffic flows pretty much unimpeded. The bottleneck north of Dupont is also not really much of an issue. The worst traffic at Calvert due to the left turn signal being a delayed one in a lane that can go south (straight) or east (left). A turning only lane, even if it is a short one, would help a lot. One continuous issue on Connecticut and throughout the city is cars taking a right from the center lane. When there are pedestrians in the crosswalk, they block the rightmost traffic lane when they should pull into the right lane past parked cars to turn. It is just laziness that causes drivers to have to slow down on their commute. |
What? That's just wrong on so many levels. For instance, Woodley Park ("the bottle neck north of Dupont") has the lowest level of traffic on all of Connecticut Ave. Connecticut and Nebraska is one of the most congested intersections in the entire DMV during rush hour. It sucks. |

The bottleneck north of Dupont but south of the bridge, so not Woodley. Kalorama maybe?

One of the worst parts about the Internet is that you can just make stuff up and be wrong and anonymous. |
PP isn't wrong, traffic backs up to CC Circle because of one streatery. Source: Me, who has to catch the L2 along that stretch every weekday. You clearly don't live anywhere near there and should really stop commenting on it, you sound ridiculous. |
This is totally hyperbolic BS. I live on that stretch of CT Ave and see it every.single.day. back up at the light at Miliary and another back up at Nebraska that usually goes to around Jenifer St - and it always has, regardless of a streetary or not. Regardless of 3 lanes or 4. |
^this Here's hoping the AdMo streetery beautification effort is so successful that we can implement it on this block of Conn , M st in Gtwon, and lower Wisconsin Ave between Glover park and Gtown too!! |
No, that's how you feel. Classic boomer selfishness from the most selfish generation. "If I think something obviously everyone else does too!" |
Cry more car brain. Cities are for people. Don't like traffic, take public transit or STFU. |
Public transit includes buses - which are stuck in traffic. DC metro does not go everywhere. Many people in CCDC rely on the L2 bus. If you are a fan of public transit, you should want them to remove the streetery and install a bus only lane on CT Ave. |
“… the entire DMV…” You lost all credibility with that comment. |
This is a complete lie. |
