moveDC, Washington DC’s long range transportation plan, has earned two awards. It received the 2015 National Planning Excellence Award for Transportation Planning from the American Planning Association and the 2015 National Recognition Award from the American Council of Engineering Companies. The plan outlines a commitment to achieving the district’s goals of livability, environmental sustainability, and economic competitiveness through investments in all modes of transportation. Nelson\Nygaard, on a team with Kimley-Horn, led the pedestrian, bicycle, transit, parking, and transportation demand management elements of moveDC. Some of the plan’s key targets include adding sidewalks on at least 25 blocks where they are missing today; improving pedestrian safety at 20 or more intersections; and building 15 miles of bicycle lanes or cycletracks.
