Safety, Education, and Enforcement Committee Meeting (February 16, 2012)

Safety, Education, and Enforcement Committee meetings are normally scheduled for second Tuesday of even-numbered months; however,  that would place the February meeting on Valentine's day.

As opposed to meeting on his own, or angering our significant others, Jameel Alsalam, committee chair and Ward 4 representative is rescheduling.

The meeting will be held Thursday, February 16, 2012 at 6:30pm at Teaism, 400 8th Street NW.

Our agenda:
  1. Reviewing outreach and training materials provided by MPD
  2. Discussing options to improve road safety through traffic enforcement in 2012
  3. Re-creation of traffic enforcement division
  4. More frequent cross-district traffic enforcement efforts
  5. Enforcement action targeting three-foot passing law
  6. Other ideas?
Lt. Breul of the Metropolitan Police Department has provided a copy of the electronic training related to bicycling taken by all MPD officers, along with a couple of outreach brochures.We invite you to provide comments on these documents.

Below is a Google map showing 32 new Capital Bikeshare locations ( Blue pins ) and 18 current stations that will see expansion ( red pins ), most of which should be installed by the fall of 2011.  According to a press release issued by goDCgo , the District Department of Transportation Director Terry Bellamy states that, " With this expansion we will not only increase the overall reach of the system, but we will expand the program’s capacity by 22 percent in the downtown area, by 80 percent in our East of the River operations and by an average of 38 percent throughout each of the additional Wards .” Most of the new locations add capacity in the system's core but CaBi appears to also expanded east of the Anacostia River in the neighborhoods of Fairfax Village, Benning Ridge, Congress Heights and downtown Anacostia.
