Parked bikes in front of my main entry stairs to my front door. Had to climb my sixty five year old self up and other to get to my front steps. Leaned the entire weight on the bike against my chain link fence bowing it. Always throwing bikes in fron of the public grass on the front and side of my house.

I agree bike lane’s cause traffic jams taking up all the lanes. Also something needs to be done with motor bikes zipping around city delivering food unsafe and hanging out in residential neighborhoods they have no permits or registration and drives reckless

Using tax money to support a small minority of bikers over the grand majority (over 90 percent) is not right. The crowded city does not have room in most places to expand bike lanes without the majority incurring a lot of additional problems, and the situation already not great. Nothing about these plans are realistic.

We are inconveniencing the majority of residents and commerce in favor of a boisterous, selfish minority of residents.

It is outrageous how we have very very limited parking spots. The restaurant are buying 6 parking spots for their customers and then we have cones taking up 2-3 spaces. Then their is the dumb bike lanes

I am a Washingtonian and DC resident. I have lived in the city for 60+ years. Many seniors and former Washington residents avoid DC theaters, museums, restaurants, shopping promenades, and nightlife because of lack of parking, confusing traffic patterns, and the bike lanes. With these aggressive bike lanes and reduced car lanes, the city will continue to lose revenue from DC residents and from neighboring metropolitan county citizens, i.e, PG, Montgomery, Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, Howard. etc.

Cambridge, MA recently paused the installation of new bike lanes for an evaluation and additional community input. Wise and appreciated step.

Bike lanes in SW DC are rarely used. Bikers and scooter riders continue to use the sidewalks or drive in the traffic. Road rules are ignored by the riders and enforcement is nil. This situation is bad for everyone-- riders, pedestrians, vehicle drivers. Bikers/scooter riders ignore lights at intersections. It is complete chaos and the Mayor needs to get this under control FAST!

It's getting impossible to get around in DC and bike lanes benefit only the few and ablebodied.

I think its ridiculous to create these bike lanes as well l as restaurant lane which take away lanes from cars leaving with one lane to commute. How many bikes do you see in the lane oppose to hundred plus cars trying to get to their destination during rush hour or otherwise. It takes away parking in neighborhoods. Therefore you're parking your car in the middle of street which very unsafe getting out on the driver's side. I can go on and on. You're giving the city a sore eye to look at. DDOT and Bowser bad move. Don't know where you get an idea to do such a thing or maybe I do. Because you sure didn't discuss it with the residents where you threw these bike lanes up. This has cause more traffic jams daily.
