[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well we won. DDOT received so many comments against they turned down the no thru traffic proposal. You tried your best, but the times, they’re a changing! [/quote] What gave the game away that they didn't really care about safety is that when people suggested changes that would actually lead to safety -- speed bumps, speed cameras, and above all sidewalks -- they were rejected because they would[i] inconvenience the residents too much[/i]![/quote] Reading the City Paper article, it seems that the residents only requested no-thru-traffic restrictions at rush hour. There is precedent for this in DC and it's not an unreasonable request on a narrowish, residential side street. It seems DDOT misunderstood and overreacted to the request. This whole thing has been over-hyped.[/quote]
