I absolutely agree with you about the lack of progress on the bike lanes. The 2009 Glover Park transportation study called for bike lanes on New Mexico Avenue and Tunlaw Road.

Ben,

This is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. Right now your neighbors are going ballistic over DDOT's traffic calming work on Wisconsin Avenue in Glover Park, and many of them have complained directly to the mayor. And yet it's happening anyway. But somehow that doesn't matter because something that was in a 2009 study hasn't happened yet.

We really do have to be careful not to interpret events through the lens of a simplistic narrative of a do-nothing mayor - reality is a little more complicated than that.
