 Parking Think Tank Schedule Updates

September 26 Meeting Rescheduled to Take Place October 4

A Second Parking Think Tank to be Held in the Downtown Area October 3

(Washington, D.C.) The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is continuing to host a series of community conversations, called Parking Think Tanks, to gauge the state of parking and to solicit public input on the future of parking in the District. DDOT envisions that these conversations will contribute to the development of a comprehensive curbside parking management plan.

Anyone who visits, lives or works in the District is invited to attend a Parking Think Tank.

To date DDOT has held a Parking Think Tank in the Downtown, Eastern and Southern areas of the District and plans to hold the additional meetings as follows:
