Highlights of BAC accomplishments in October:

The BAC sat down to work first thing into the month. The Safety, Education and Enforcement and Legislative Committees held a joint meeting on Oct. 2 to develop testimony about the Vision Zero Enhancement Omnibus Amendment Act of 2019.

Chair Rachel Maisler, Secretary-Treasurer Jeff Johnson, and immediate past chair David Cranor testified at the bill’s Oct. 24 hearing. Official written testimony will be transmitted in early November and posted under separate cover.

The Facilities Committee held an on-bike “rolling” meeting to assess NoMa and Eckington intersections around North Capitol Street and New York Avenue.

The BAC and the Pedestrian Advisory Council held an Oct. 28 joint meeting featuring a two-hour discussion with DDOT Director Jeff Marootian. Council members questioned the Director about Vision Zero and other policies and infrastructure projects.
