DC Circulator Service Changes for June 24, 2018 ‐ Responses To DC Circulator Service Changes for June 24, 2018 ‐ Responses to Public Comments ID Name Comment Response from DDOT I am a Ward 6 (Capitol Hill area) resident who will be working in Ward 8 beginning this summer. I support the proposed changes because they will improve 1 A Kaufman travel to and around Ward 8 while helping community members access vital services and increase the connectivity between Wards 6 & 8. I am a Ward 7 resident who will be working in Ward 8 beginning this summer. I support the proposed changes because they will improve travel to and around 2 AD Saunders Ward 8 while helping community members access vital services and community supports. This route directly affects me and my commute on a daily basis. 3 A Donovan This route would be a great addition, and a stop at the new Wharf development would be really helpful. The Union Station‐ Navy Yard route has low ridership, especially during the mid‐day and on weekends (17 passengers boarding per hour, tied for 4th in the system). It also currently serves areas that do not demand high‐ Dear DDOT, We live in NE on Capitol Hill and frequently use the Union Station‐Navy Yard Metro route to take our daughter to school. In the summer we use the frequency, all‐day service. From end to end, the trip on the route often to go to Nationals games and to go to Yards Park. The proposed changes would severely impact my family's ability to get our daughter to school and DC Circulator is 28 minutes. The same trip can be made on 4 A Shah access Yards Park and Nationals Park. It would also reduce our ridership on DC Circulator from regular users to almost‐never users. Thank you for considering Metrorail with a transfer in less than 20 minutes between my comments. Adam Shah Union Station and the Navy Yard. 80 percent of the TDP Outreach Phase II survey respondents chose this alignment as their preferred route. The realigned Union Station ‐ Congress Heights route will serve Union Station and Navy Yard. The Good Hope Road segment of PS has low ridership, WMATA is already planning to get rid of the V5. If we get rid of the Circulator on Good Hope, there will only be one bus line left that will take us from our likely because it overlaps with many Metrobus routes. In neighborhood to downtown, which will *greatly* inconvenience workers and students traveling to school across town. Lastly, the Circulator guarantees addition, the activity centers on this segment do not 5 A Page headways of 10 minutes, but the proposed replacement headways for the 92 are only every 10 minutes during peak hours, which will inconvenience seniors and demand the 10‐minute, all‐day service that the DC students returning home after school. Circulator provides. WMATA will increase frequency on the 92. The Good Hope Road segment of PS has low ridership, The WMATA rep at the open house stated that the 92 has a ridership of 1300 a day across the bridge, DDOT said Circulator on its current route has 1400 a day. It likely because it overlaps with many Metrobus routes. In seems to me that those riderships are roughly equally, so the City should consider retaining the current Circulator route. Comparing PS to more affulent routes addition, the activity centers on this segment do not 6 A Page in the city, that's unfair. Fewer people in this area are employed, so therefore fewer people will use it less for commuting, but that doesn't mean that people demand the 10‐minute, all‐day service that the DC don't have to travel, especially our students and seniors. Circulator provides. WMATA will increase frequency on the 92 to 10‐12 minutes in the peak periods. DDOT studied the NoMa neighborhood from 2015 to 2016. The analysis found that the NoMa area is well‐ served by high frequency transit. Overall, the routing options within NoMa are very constrained and generally duplicate service. One way to provide additional Please update to service the NoMa neighborhood, as there are an increasing number of people (me included) looking for an alternate route to work beside connectivity would be to utilize M Street and 4th Street. 7 A Schroeder metro. However, residents opposed the use of these streets, and M Street has speed bumps which can damage buses and cause rider discomfort. DDOT will reconsider this area of Washington, DC in future TDP updates as it monitors continued growth to evaluate if additional transit service capacity is warranted. Dear Sirs, I am writing to express my full support of the new Congress Heights to Union Station via Anacostia Circulator route shown in final DC Circulator 2017 8 A Berley Transit Development Plan Update (see Section 4.3.2 and Figure 9.) This new modified route will meet a great need of residents and commuters in this growing area of Ward 8. Thank you very much. DC Circulator Service Changes for June 24, 2018 ‐ Responses to Public Comments ID Name Comment Response from DDOT The Potomac Avenue section of the current PS route I am concerned that the Potomac Ave station will no longer have a stop. I encourage the decision makers to consider keeping the Potomac Ave stop and keep suffers from low ridership likely due to Metrobus and 9 A Duncan the proposed service extension to Union Station. I like that the $1 fare will be maintained. Metrorail service. Realigning the route will use District resources most effectively. The US‐NY route suffers from low ridership outside of the peak periods. In addition, the route often has detours in the area due to Capitol Police or other police activity. Previous TDP public outreach offered a realignment to 4th Street NE/6th Street NE instead of First Street NE, but this There is already too little north‐south transportation on the Hill. Adding in a transfer to get to Union Station from Navy Yard is ridiculous. It adds to the route was not popular. DDOT is looking into funding 10 A Fansmith commute of ppl traveling btw Navy Yard and Union Station. It makes traveling to the new Navy Yard and Southwest areas more difficult for Hill residents. This additional trips on the Metrobus 97 route to extend its will negatively impact local businesses in the area, too. service in the peak periods. The trip also takes 28 minutes on current the current Circulator route and only 20 minutes on Metrorail. Riders will be able to transfer to and from the new Potomac Avenue ‐ Skyland route, which serves Union Station, at Eastern Market. The US‐NY route suffers from low ridership outside of the Dear DDOT, I live in Navy Yard so I use the Union Station ‐ Navy Yard circulator servicing those areas quite a bit. It's the only way to get to the other side of the peak periods. In addition, the route often has detours in Hill via public transportation that makes any sense. The drivers are always friendly and the buses are so nice and clean. I know you haven't had a lot of ridership the area due to Capitol Police or other police activity. loyalty on this route all the way to Union Station but to cut out the connection to Union Station would be a real loss. As a central transportation hub of the city Previous TDP public outreach offered a realignment to 4th 11 A Teixeira Sulier and a great dining and shopping spot, it is nice to have as a destination on this circulator. Without it, Navy Yard would require a metro commute with a transfer Street NE/6th Street NE instead of First Street NE, but this for a destination that is only 1.5 miles apart. I would encourage you to keep the route the same but add the Wharf and L'Enfant Plaza as well. You would likely route was not popular. DDOT is looking into funding have a much larger ridership if people who live in Northeast Capitol Hill could come to both of our city's new hotspots for entertainment. Thank you for your additional trips on the Metrobus 97 route to extend its consideration. Best regards, Allison service in the peak periods. 12 AC Ramirez Todo los servicios estanbuen si trabajan saturday and sunday mejor. With regard to the proposed to the Navy Yard Circulator route, I strongly support extending the route to go to Jefferson Academy. The Circulator can be an important transportation resource for middle school kids on Capitol Hill and Capitol Quarter, but only with the Navy Yard route extension that has been 13 A Lewis proposed. There is currently no easy way for Capitol Hill kids to get to Jefferson Academy, their assigned middle school. Please make sure any final plan will serve Capitol Hill and Capitol Quarter kids and their ability to take a bus to their by‐right middle school. The Union Station‐ Navy Yard route has low ridership, especially during the mid‐day and on weekends (17 passengers boarding per hour, tied for 4th in the system). The current Union Station ‐ Navy Yard Metro route serves a very important need when it connects the Union Station hub with Capitol Hill, especially the Library It also currently serves areas that do not demand high‐ of Congress buildings. When I commuted from Maryland into Union Station, I would take the Circulator to and from the Library of Congress, my workplace. frequency, all‐day service. From end to end, the trip on the Without the Circulator, my commute would have been much more difficult and exhausting and my work product would have suffered.

PURPOSE: To request Board approval for an exchange of property interests between the District of Columbia and Metro at the north entrance of the Congress Heights Metro station in order for Metro to acquire fee simple interest to the land under a portion of its facilities and to allow the District to redesign the street grid immediately west of the station area. DESCRIPTION: Metro and the District of Columbia have agreed in principle to the redesign of the access to the north entrance of the Congress Heights station in conjunction with the District's redevelopment of its property immediately west of the station. As part of the project, the District will convey to Metro full legal ownership of the land under a portion of Metro's facilities at that entrance and Metro will convey a portion of its property to the District in order to facilitate the new street grid. Key Highlights: The exchange of property interests will formally complete the acquisition of full property interests for Metro at the north entrance of Congress Heights station Background and History: When Metro opened the Congress Heights Metro station as part of the opening of the last phase of the Green Line in 2001, Metro did not have full legal rights to the property on the north entrance to the station.
