In the field, members attended community meetings about infrastructure projects. At least two members are visible in the picture below, taken at a December public meeting about the 20th/21st/22nd Streets NW protected bike lanes project. Members Jeff Johnson (left) and David Alexander (third from left) reviewed the options for new bike lanes. Note that DDOT is accepting public comment through Feb. 13, 2019. The BAC previously surveyed the area and issued its recommendation last summer.
Amid plans for 3 new protected bike lanes in Northwest, @ddotdc is taking public comment through Sunday on a proposed cycle track from the National Mall to Dupont Circle (via 20th, 21st or 22nd St) and @ANC2B will consider a preferred route on Wednesday. https://t.co/QGbYTgRb2l— The DC Line (@dclinenews) January 5, 2019
