Having a bit of an identity crisis, but probably still tweeting about unsafe roads and selfish drivers.

@ARLnowDOTcom What can you find out about a Van Leeuwen ice cream shop coming the Crossing Clarendon? Please and thank you!

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

What the actual f, @VaDOTNOVA @ArlingtonDES?! I can’t even remember how long ago it snowed (3 wks?) and you can’t even clear the @BikeArlington path at 50/Fairfax Dr & N Barton???!

As you can see from the tracks, I’m not the only bike rider / walker to brave the ice.

How early does the panda house open? What’s the best time to see the pandas awake and active? Here’s what you need to know as pandas return to D.C. https://t.co/wmOKSXwv4N

I don't live in AdMo so I can't say either way, but it does seem very early in the project's life to judge whether it will be effective — and what effective means. Change is a fact of life, and people eventually adapt. I'm curious how opinions will change by later this summer.

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

@Arl_Infra Yes. I heard of mothers getting strollers stuck. The crew was / is out just this morning.

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

Thx to 4-man @ArlingtonDES crew for FINALLY clearing the ice sheet on the pedestrian refuge between Wilson & Clarendon @ N Veitch in Courthouse neighborhood.

🚨 Heads up, Adams Morgan! DDOT’s Clear Lanes program is expanding to Columbia Road NW (Harvard to 17th) starting Jan 27. Keep bus lanes clear—violations will carry $100 fines starting March 17. Details: https://t.co/s8aww7FqRZ #ClearLanes #BusLaneSafety

Found out the hard way at 8am on a Sunday that @ArlingtonDES didn’t shovel the @ArlingtonVA Blvd trail from Fairfax Dr westbound. Thanks… for nuthin. cc @BikeArlington

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

@bikeshare No worries. For what it’s worth, my specific suggestion for the planner is to put a bikeshare station on the west side of the Courthouse Plaza (near the Residence Inn).

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

I *still* don’t know where the second @bikeshare station is in this project area… and neither does Bikeshare. 🤷‍♂️

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

@Arl_Infra @bikeshare Yes, that’s my guess, too. The study area specifically excludes Wilson Blvd; but the map suggests otherwise.

.@ArlingtonDES is legally responsible for clearing @ArlingtonVA-owned sidewalks. Clarendon Blvd @ N Danville park.

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

@ArlingtonVA @BikeArlington @ArlingtonDES Done. Thx!

[Zack Gold @zacycles]

DO NOT / NOT enter the protected @BikeArlington lane on Clarendon Blvd thru Clarendon. It’s an ice luge. cc @ArlingtonDES
