DDOT public meetings on proposed FY2015 – 2021 transportation projects

DDOT released the following notice of public meetings on proposed FY2015 – 2021 projects in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program. Item of interest for our neighborhood is completion of the Metropolitan Branch Trail (see image at bottom of post). It is worth taking a look at the entire draft project list.

*** PUBLIC MEETING NOTICE***
DDOT to Hold Public Meetings for Statewide Transportation Improvement Program 
The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) will hold two public meetings to present for public feedback the transportation projects included in the Fiscal Years 2015 to 2021 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).  The public is invited to participate in one of the following meetings:
When: December 2, 2014 6:30pm – 8:30pm 

Where: Petworth Neighborhood Library

4200 Kansas Avenue NW

Washington, DC 20011

When: December 3, 2014 6:30pm – 8:30pm

Where: Department of Employment Services

4058 Minnesota Avenue NE

Washington, DC 20019

The STIP is a statewide prioritized funding program of transportation projects covering a six-year period that is consistent with the long-range statewide transportation plan, also known as moveDC.  The STIP includes those projects with federal funding and/or regional significance, but it does not include individual projects with 100% local funding to address local transportation needs (these are included in the District’s Capital Budget process).  At the meetings, DDOT will present the Draft FY 2015 to 2021 STIP Project List, which includes information on the type of project, project funding, and the estimated project schedule.  In addition, DDOT will provide an overview of the STIP and how it was developed.  The Draft FY 2015 to 2021 Project List is located here on DDOT’s website.
