Safetrack Surge #10 Transportation Options Safetrack.Godcgo.Com SafeTrack Surge #10 Transportation Options safetrack.godcgo.com Red Line Segment Shutdown, Fort Totten to NOMA- Gallaudet October 29 – November 22, 2016 The upcoming SafeTrack Surge #10 will begin on Saturday, October 29 and conclude on Tuesday, November 22. The service disruption will impact Metrorail’s Red Line riders with a full line segment shutdown between Fort Totten and NoMa-Gallaudet stations, and a 50% reduction in service on the west side of the line. All other Metro lines will have normal service and the Red Line service on the west side will not diminish substantially outside of rush hour. WMATA will offer additional bus service on many routes (see reverse) and shuttle buses will serve the four impacted Metro stations. DDOT will offer Capital Bikeshare corrals at Union Station and downtown. Three DC Circulator bus routes have increased hours of operation. How Your Neighborhood Will Be Impacted During SafeTrack Surge #10, neighborhoods in the immediate vicinity of Fort Totten, Brookland-CUA, Rhode Island Ave- Brentwood, and NOMA-Gallaudet U will experience some impacts including more vehicle congestion than normal and additional Metrobus traffic. DDOT anticipates traffic will be particularly heavy during morning rush hours (7am – 10am) and afternoon rush hours (4pm – 7pm). We encourage you to shift your normal travel to bus alternatives and to consider biking via Capital Bikeshare or a personal bicycle. If you choose to drive, shift your travel schedule to before or after rush hour to avoid heavy traffic and crowding on transit. Flyers detailing travel alternatives for students and families are available at each impacted school and online at safetrack.godcgo.com. Contact Us goDCgo is an initiative of DDOT that provides free resources and information to help you choose sustainable, affordable and healthy ways to get around DC.

    GREENING AMERICA’S THE ANACOSTIA CAPITALS METRO STATION AREA Washington, D.C. Greening America’s Capitals is a project of the Partnership for Sustainable Communities between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to help state capitals develop an implementable vision of distinctive, environmentally friendly neighborhoods that incorporate innovative green building and green infrastructure strategies. EPA is providing this design assistance to help support sustainable communities that protect the environment, economy, and public health and to inspire state leaders to expand this work elsewhere. Greening America’s Capitals will help communities consider ways to incorporate sustainable design strategies into their planning and development to create and enhance interesting, distinctive neighborhoods that have multiple social, economic, and environmental benefits. Washington, D.C., was chosen in 2011 as one of five state capital cities to receive this assistance along with Montgomery, Alabama; Phoenix, Arizona; Jackson, Mississippi; and Lincoln, Nebraska.

    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: Washington DC’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London The Operator’s Story: Notes from Washington DC Case Study Interviews March 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in Washington DC. These notes are based upon meetings between 13th – 16th June 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and WMATA. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by WMATA (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by WMATA themselves and those expressed about their organisation. The Operator’s Story: Washington DC Case Study 2 Key Messages: Relevance to International Learning about Metro Operators This case study illustrates a large variety of international lessons about metro operations.
