Mission
The nature of transportation in the District has been upended by COVID-19. Public and private transportation alike have seen unprecedented declines in use, causing financial distress for public transportation agencies, while also reducing traffic and greenhouse gas emissions. The challenges and opportunities of reopening are particularly pronounced in transportation, where there is an opportunity to reopen even more in line with our goals around multimodal transportation, vision zero, and improved environmental impacts.
Focus
The committee will explore equitable, accessible, and sustainable transportation policies that allow each and every District resident get to and from work, home, school, or play safely, while supporting a vibrant and strong neighborhood quality of life. This includes taking advantage of reopening to further multimodal transportation options and use. The committee should recommend how social distancing practices can be met on mass transportation, as well as public spaces and sidewalks, etc.
Including, but not limited to:
- Transportation (bus, Metro, rail)
- Private Transportation
- Cycling lanes
- Sidewalks and Public Spaces
- Ride-sharing/Taxis
