Got this email today...
Greetings,
We are contacting you as a past passenger on a DC2NY bus on the Washington DC New York City corridor. We wanted you to be aware of a proposed change that the city of Washington is making. They are forcing all the intercity buses to move their pick-up and drop off locations to 10th Street SW, beneath the L'Enfant Promenade, this would not be a convenient location for any of our DC2NY guests. The city has cited that the bus companies have been blocking traffic, sidewalks and entrances to businesses, however none of these accusations apply to our locations. Additionally we carefully chose the Dupont Circle area as a safe location allowing most of you convenient access to your homes and destinations.
Naturally, we are urging the city to approve our current stop locations as "designated intercity bus zones", but we need your support. We have already heard from some of you, but now is the time to let your opinions be known. Would you please consider sending a letter to support us in our quest to allow us to be able to serve you from our current locations. Please address your emails to Karina Ricks, the Associate Director, District Department of Transportation at
karina.ricks@dc.gov. It would be helpful to copy Mr. Emeka Moneme, the Director at:
Emeka.moneme@dc.gov.
Please also copy the following city council members as they are members of the committee on Public Works and the Environment:
