[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The UDC campus is already a mess right now between the student center and other construction. Even if they started building the Murch swing space today, just can't see how it would be ready by August.  Have they even done traffic studies to see how the surrounding houses will be impacted by the additional traffic?  Have to imagine the embassies are not thrilled with this, let alone the surrounding home owners.[/quote]

They need to adjust both the light at Conn Ave/Van Ness St. and the light at Van Ness St./Reno, which is incredibly fast. [/quote]

Does anyone attend Murch who lives south of Van Ness?  If not, why should these lights matter much?[/quote]

Hearst families who live on the east side of Conn Ave, especially in the big buildings drive there. But, also, Mary Cheh told families that she envisions on the Murch drop off and pick up occurring on Van Ness Street on the side of UDC. She said she thought the metered street parking would be removed. So Murch families would have to drive south on Conn Ave and turn right onto Van Ness and  then queue up to drop off. Then they would have to advance to the Van Ness/Reno light. Disaster for traffic.[/quote]

No, there is going to be a drop off lane through the parking lot for anyone driving, so they could turn left or right coming out of the UDC parking lot. They are also building a new service road to the trailer campus.

This might be the only part of the project that has been well planned, thanks to UDC facility staff.[/quote]
