A tidbit: Passenger service in Waymo and other self-driving vehicles isn't coming anytime soon in D.C. A long-delayed report from the D.C. Department of Transportation that would detail how self-driving cars could be legalized won't be done until May. The D.C. Council can't act before that's done.

Interesting: For all the hate D.C.'s traffic cameras get, there seems to be some evidence drivers are responding by not speeding, running red lights and so on. Below is data on traffic camera tickets from 12/2024 to 12/2025. There was a pretty steady decline for most of 2025.

Deeply disappointed in MD SHA - only marginal improvements to Blue Line’s Central Av/MD 214 planned. Excessive high speed 6 lanes of traffic remain when could be 4 lanes. Seems serious walk safety improvements were avoided due to concern about cost. Low cost tactics like paint not considered.

I think the real benefit for the aquatics/fitness facility is the connection to the MVT. I doubt many people from DC will bike or walk across the river to swim.

In testimony to D.C. Council, Metro General Manager Randy Clarke says a key to getting people to and from the new Commanders stadium at RFK will be bus rapid transit from Union Station. "It's critical... we need to be able to get a lot of people on the Red Line and take BRT to the site," he says.
