Don’t Have to Walk on Eggshells One of the people on my street has put a No Parking sign in front of her home on a public street. If anyone parks there, the response can be anything from yelling and screaming to eggs thrown at the car. Can a person legally reserve the space in front of their house on a public street and, if not, what would you suggest we do? No, and call the police. Is there word on when the groundbreaking will be on the Silver Line’s second phase? Work on phase two already is underway. For example, Dulles Air-
port visitors are going to notice that about 100 trees are being relocated this spring to make way for the tracks and airport station.
Does that mean a specific location for the airport station has been selected? Please tell me that they’re still not considering a station so distant that it would require a bus bridge? To save money, the station will be placed far from the terminal, by the daily parking garage. This is a mistake. It would be much better to put the station near where the passengers are. But it will be up to some future generation to correct this.

I’ve recently switched to taking the Green Line for work. The “schedule” is nonexistent. I can’t nail down any times when to leave in the morning or the evening. The train also often waits in the tunnel prior to approaching L’Enfant for extended periods of time. What is going on with this? Has Rush Plus derailed the timing? I think you’re probably seeing the effects of having the Green and Yellow line trains bunch up at the point where they come together to enter L’Enfant Plaza station. It’s possible that’s a Rush Plus issue, at least to some extent, because Rush Plus added trains to the Yellow Line.
