Transportation is a big issue in every area, but especially here in the DC area. Maryland, DC + northern Virginia are all so intertwined in business and more that we need to make sure it's easy to get place to place. Unfortunately easy isn't usually a word associated with our regions transportation.
There are some things being done to address area transportation =
Maryland
- Montgomery county council recently passed a vote to promote denser development in already urban areas, with requirements that there be green and transportation friendly amenities (paths, bike trails, etc.)
- ICC = Inter County Connector is being built
- PG county is working on development of New Carrolton area
Virginia
- All along the beltway the HOT lanes program is adding 2 extra lanes on each side of the beltway (inner loop and outer loop) - from Alexandria through Tysons Corner
- Metro is being built through Tysons Corner to Reston, and eventually out to the Dulles Airport; this will be known as the Silver line
- free bus service mid-day in Tysons corner
DC
- promoting green practicies
- greener buses
Is this enough. Well no, it's never enough, but it's something. Let's keep working towards solutions to better communities. Transportation is a key issue in getting to our real estate, be it commercial or residential.
