[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm very much in favor of fixing up the Trolley trail, but I didn't think the DDOT studies actually looked at replacing all the bridges they removed in the 60s/80s?  Some of those crossings are unsafe for anyone (Canal rd to the West, Foxhall rd to the East).

The city could, though very unlikely, put bus lanes on Foxhall, Resevoir, or MacArthur (and M street!).  There's definitely room.

The DDOT study on the Palisades Trolley Trail indeed proposed to build the new bridges. See here: https://ddot.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/ddot/page_content/attachments/Appendix1_TrailConceptDesignPackage_FINAL_Reduced.pdf

Reservoir is wide enough to accommodate a dedicated bus / bike lane (similar to H St in front of the WH). You just need to take out the parking in front of the Gtown hospital. Given that the hospital is building a new parking garage, that shouldn’t be a problem.[/quote]

This seems like a whole heck of a lot of drama to prevent WOTP folk from being re-routed East. Why not figure out a bus system that takes some Wilson bounded kids to Cardozo High while also making Cardozo more appealing to citywide kids.[/quote]

Then the WOTP kids going east and EOTP kids going west to Wilson can wave at each other as they pass in the middle.[/quote]
