The National Park Service on Wednesday announced a list of changes they’ll implement over the next year that will better connect areas on the National Mall and improve safety for pedestrians and bikers.
The work will include the rehabilitation of trails and roads to create new and enhanced infrastructure for visitors to the Mall. There will be closures and detours while the process is ongoing.
Rallygoers will ride from RFK Stadium to the National Mall on Sunday. The demonstration is set to begin at noon.
Rolling to Remember, organized by AMVETS, is meant to draw awareness to service members missing in action and to the ongoing mental health crisis among veterans.
The organizers said they are expecting up to 100,000 bikes and up to 150,000 attendees.
The following roads will be closed 4 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday:
Eastbound Independence Avenue Southeast, from 19th Street Southeast to the entrance of RFK Lot 8.
East Capitol Street Southeast, from 19th to 22nd streets Southeast.
22nd Street Southeast, from C Street Southeast to Independence Avenue Southeast.
In the US, nearly half of all car trips people take are less than three miles, and most take place on local streets. So why does so much federal funding go for things like highways? For cities to “build projects that offer climate, mobility, and equity benefits on a large scale,” federal transportation funding and policy may need to change.
Join the National Association of Transportation Officials for a paneled discussion about how to transform federal funding policies to “better work for cities while addressing the safety, climate, equity, and economic recovery challenges of our time.” This free event begins at 4:15 pm Wednesday, May 26.
