Reply to comment by mistersmiley318 in NPS and DDOT moving ahead with road redesign in East Potomac Park. One vehicle lane on Ohio Drive from the East Potomac Golf Course to Hains Point and back to Buckeye Drive will be replaced with a dedicated bicycle and pedestrian lane. Work expected to begin next month by mistersmiley318

>S's shoddy track record when it comes to dealing with things they manage in DC outside of the big monuments (see the Park Police example above, neglect for parks east of the river, trying to put cars back on Beach Drive) this half measure is par for the course.

Have you studied this with evaulations on chicanes versus dedicated bikes lanes? I think data is more convincing, if that is what you are trying to do. I literally just wrapped up a program synethsis that is 35 pages long. These (transportation policy, housing policy, etc.) issues often aren't just "decided on a whim." Public policy experts usually spend months researching them.
