The District Department of Transportation announces the first in a series of public meetings regarding an update of the District Transportation Plan.

In 1997, the District published A Transportation Vision, Strategy and Action Plan for the Nation's Capital. Developed with deep public involvement, the 1997 Plan included recommendations on signage and traveler information, public and tour bus parking, light rail, Metrorail and bus and fare structure, airport and waterway connections, bicycle and pedestrian movement, truck and rail movement and expanded multi-modal funding.
