First of all, I like the work. Good job and good start.
This may be nitpicky (but I think it's also how bike infrastructure goes from 'good' to 'blah' to 'unacceptable' between planning to...
The absolute minimum is to take advantage of the fact that 3 corners of the Quincy/Washington Blvd intersection are public land, so it should be completely unnecessary for the bike lane to end right...
It never ceases to amaze me, (though by now it shouldn't) that there is no 'safe' crossing from the neighborhood to the MVT over the three and half mile stretch between the Wilson Bridge and...
This just happened to me also at Quincy and Glebe in Ballston/Buckingham. I thought I could score an e bike, but the dock isn't letting any bikes get checked out through either key fob or app, and...

Do you mean South Eads? (i.e. Crystal city area?) The answer is yes north of 23rd st (e.g. https://goo.gl/maps/YFYVtRGmV6S2), but not south of 23rd st (e.g. https://goo.gl/maps/mbkkqL8HXCv)

Btw for future reference, the only way to get near the Kid's run by bike was by taking the Columbia Island route and going over the bridge that crosses the boundary channel. Some friends taking...
I'm going mildly defend the bollard as 1) there's two stone walls right there so you have to slow anyway and 2) frequent heavy pedestrian traffic on a narrow sidewalk and erratic car traffic on...
Ok I was wondering with all the stakes up they were finally re-doing the path at the old on ramp. Looks like the case.
Oh ok. I misread what you said, sorry.
Parking won't be free? Every casino I've ever been to in the US has huge-a, uh huge-acre parking garages with free parking.
And some (I'm looking at you Main Line Blvd & Potomac Ave) have the beg button on the opposite end of the corner curb curve from the street you are trying to cross.
I would imagine one of the design criteria is to provide some space between the path and the trees, not only for visibility, but also for the health of the trees that are in a 'preservation' status.

North end of 15th Street cycle track used for Segway parking this morning.
There's already a station for a long time now inside the fence line of the white house complex.
With the new bike lanes, I have able to get the speed sensor sign Wilson Blvd to read 21 on a CaBi, but I can't go down that hill for an hour.
Also the sharrow is labelled on the left around American History (I blame Howard Zinn)
this was the state of things a few years ago. But the things laid out there are still in the press release near the top of the NVRPA W&OD home page.
Dr Gridlock reported earlier in the week that both the arrival and departure drawspan openings on the Wilson Bridge were going to be right around midnight.
There's a notional plan somewhere out there (beneath the pale blue sky?) to put a bike path on the replacement of the Long Bridge (the railroad bridge) that would have an interchange with the MVT and...
Northbound traffic has a stop sign. There's no excuse for not slowing down enough to be able to look uphill to your left and yielding to downhill traffic, even it it involves coming to a complete...
It's not like it's Wall Drug ;)
A similiar crowding occurs at Ashburn Road with the Carolina BBQ on a nice day. I think people just need to be mindful that a nice day draws crowds and the W&OD isn't a sprint stage of the TdF.
