The largest two issues for the DC metroplex are providing enormously more public transit and cleaning the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Both need regional taxing authority. Congestion pricing in London was a doddle because it is all one jurisdiction. The thirty-umpteen state and local government entities of DC militate against coordinated planning either for traffic or the environment. When there is no cross-border taxing authority, there is no unified policy. And unfortunately I can't see how to get there from here.
