Public Invited to Comment on Florida Ave/New York Ave NE Intersection Project (Dave Thomas Circle)
Washington, DC --The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) invites the community to an Open House on Monday, April 29, 2019 to discuss a major component of Mayor Bowser's 2020 Fiscal Year budget, the acquisition and design of roadways and intersections at Florida Ave and New York Ave NE, often referred to as Dave Thomas Circle.
Over several years, DDOT has made adjustments and studied major capital improvements for the intersection of Florida Ave NE, New York Ave NE, First Street NE, and Eckington Place NE. In Spring 2019, DDOT is building upon previous studies, data collection, and community engagement and is completing necessary environmental review. DDOT is reviewing the concept and making refinements in the preliminary design process, with special attention paid to safe pedestrian crossings and bicycle facilities.
This meeting will be an opportunity for DDOT to update the community on past work and the current environmental process and listen to ideas and feedback about this important intersection.
