Bike funding proposals

[James Wamsley]

The Alexandria Gazette Packet reports:
In a March 4 meeting with U.S. Rep. Jim Moran (D-8), the city
government made 19 funding proposals for federal dollars.

I have copied the Bike ones.


. The city wants $750,000 to create a stream-crossing under the
Shirley Highway to connect the west end to Cameron Station and the
east end through Holmes Run Parkway.
. The city wants $450,000 to conduct a feasibility study to provide
options for the renovation of sections of the George Washington
Parkway trails that are located on National Park service property.
. The city wants unspecified funds to assist in the widening of
Eisenhower Avenue.
. The city wants unspecified funds to improve trail and bikeway
connections between the Eisenhower Trail and the proposed Woodrow
Wilson Bridge Trails. Such a trail would begin near the east end of
Cameron Run and flow under the Beltway toward near the southeast edge
of the Telegraph Road interchange.
