DDOT Schedules Public Meetings on Streetcars

The District Department of Transportation is bringing its show on the road in the coming month in an effort to do public outreach in all eight wards on the biggest projects in its pipeline, including those streetcars you've been hearing so much about. You may have seen different versions of this list of upcoming public meetings, but below is the revised, and most up-to-date, calendar now available.

The Washington Business Journal earlier this week got the city's transit nerds all hot and bothered by publishing quotes from Ward 6's Tommy Wells announcing that the H Street NE streetcar line could end up happening before the Anacostia line. Wells said he plans to make it happen by introducing legislation later this year that would overturn the ban on overheard wires inside the L’Enfant city.

With this recent development, these meetings are sure to be well attended, so mark your calendars. All of these DDOT open houses will begin at 7 p.m. and end at 8:30 p.m. Full schedule after the jump.
