From Monica Hernandez: Mayor Vincent C. Gray, Ward 7 Councilmember Yvette Alexander, District Department of Transportation (DDOT) Director Terry Bellamy, Federal Highway Administrator Victor Mendez and community leaders held a ribbon-cutting ceremony today to celebrate the substantial completion of the Pennsylvania Avenue Great Streets Project. The $35.8 million project has dramatically improved this vital corridor, making it safer for vehicular traffic and pedestrians alike and vastly more appealing visually.

From Linda Grant: The full DC Snow Team is deploying today, applying salt to major roadways and residential streets, as needed.  The District also will move rush-hour traffic signal timing up to begin at 1 pm to facilitate the movement of traffic as employees leave work earlier to reach their destination before conditions can hamper travel.
