Shifting all of the Maryland commuter traffic directly onto residential streets. Yay?
I live on one of those streets and still support it - we have some counter measures that can be taken if needed though I'm skeptical they will be.
Countermeasures? For keeping cars off streets?
But not your car, right?

Good for you I guess but I live on another and don't support it. There are no effective counter measures, traffic laws are not enforced, and people drive like absolute maniacs even when there are kids going to school in packs.

As it is, Connecticut Avenue currently has two through lanes and Beach Drive is closed. So, whatever there is now, it will be about the same.

It should be closed to foot traffic as well. Let wild spaces be wild, without human interference.
There are hundreds of other miles of streets in DC that people can stroll on.
