ANC Commissioner Danielle Geong (4B09) passed along information about a Notice of Intent (NOI) with proposed parking changes around 6th Street & Madison Street NE. DDOT is proposing to daylight the intersection of 6th and Madison by installing pavement markings and flexposts within 25 feet of the existing crosswalk.

See NOI 26-129-TSA.

DDOT issued a plan to update 4B09 residential parking signage and daylight the intersection at 6th/Madison St NE to improve safety (please reference attachment for details). This is the southwest corner by Riggs field, where a lot of W4-5 neighbors walk to LaSalle ES, the rec center etc. Parking in and around the intersection will be prohibited in accordance with existing city regulations if the NOI moves forward. 

Background: ANC 4B sent DDOT a traffic-calming resolution last year in response to a history of serious traffic accidents in the LaSalle-Backus ES school zone. LaSalle ES serves PK3-5 students in both ANCs 4B and 5A (5A01, 5A02, 5A07, 5A09).
