DC wants 2 contradictory things. It wants people to return to the office, and it wants to reduce the use of cars. Both are not really possible.


Sure they are. People can walk, bike, bus and metro to work. No need for a car.


Only works realistically for a small percentage of people. Stop acting dumb.


Then we should improve walking, biking, bus, and Metro so they work realistically for a larger percentage of people.


Do you have a few hundred billion dollars growing on trees?


Don't be silly. Sidewalks are cheap. Bike lanes are cheap. Bus lanes are cheap. Fix the American Legion Bridge instead of replacing it, then spend the balance on sidewalks, bike lanes, and bus lanes.


If you’re looking for “silly”, just look in the mirror, my friend.

Driving alone to work is mode of transportation that the mayor's office has been trying to REDUCE for years. Less than half of commuters in dc use it. Quit acting carbrain.


I prefer my hybrid. But thank you.

But I prefer to drive and I plan to continue to do so. Not interested in alternatives.

Will someone please post emails for pertinent DC agencies and city council members so everyone can raise safety and traffic concerns?

Yep, a bus lane makes infinitely more sense on Connecticut Ave than a bike lane.


There is no need to choose between one or the other. We can and should have both.

If only the was rail, bus, feet, and bikes as alternatives to car that most people living in the city used to get to work... oh wait.

Who wants to sit on asphalt and eat while cars, buses, and bikes jockey for position and whiz by mere inches away from your table?

This is a disaster waiting to happen.

DC al fresco dining is a joke.
