As a candidate to represent Ward 2 on the Council, I will make pedestrian safety a priority by improving public spaces and transportation infrastructure. #WalkDC https://randyforward2.com/services/transportation/
I worked to implement important Vision Zero initiatives to:
ban turns on red
improve crosswalk markings
lower speed limits
With these improvements, I also advocated for:
protected bike lanes on 17th and 20th Streets
dedicated bus lanes on H and I St & 16th St

I’ll be a leader on the Council fighting for more pedestrian safety initiatives by:
advocating for traffic calming tactics
fixing sidewalks
adding more miles of protected bike lanes

When the pandemic hit, I knew we needed to continue improving public space to make our streets safe for everyone. I immediately got to work with DDOT to expand sidewalks for residents to social distance and install strEATeries to expand outdoor dining space.
The pandemic has forced us to look at how we use public space for the betterment of our community. As Councilmember, I’ll support making the positive changes we see today permanent in many areas of Ward 2.
As Ward 2 Councilmember, we'll reclaim more public space for the betterment of our community like repurposing the inner traffic rings of Dupont Circle as a parklet for events and markets.
. @wmata & @DCCirculator will also be key as we continue to improve transportation in DC & decrease traffic congestion. I’ll work to:
lower fares on & eliminate transfer fees
expand dedicated bus lanes on congested corridors
make service more convenient for riders
