Our Long Regional Nightmare is Over
From a DDOT press release
District of Columbia Mayor Fenty and Pepco will sign a right of entry agreement for property in Eckington. This agreement will allow DDOT to immediately begin the design of the Metropolitan Branch Trail section between New York Avenue, NE and Franklin Street, NE. Construction will follow and is anticipated to be completed by summer 2009.
There will be a signing ceremony tomorrow morning 10:45am at the PEPCO sub-station at 101 Harry Thomas Way NE. Fenty, Pepco Region President Thomas Graham, Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, Councilmember Tommy Wells and DDOT Director Emeka Moneme will be in attendance.
Photos please?
$20 to whoever gets Fenty or Holmes Norton to "encourage" Graham and PEPCO to expedite the electrical hook-up for the Smart Bikes before another month goes by without bike sharing.

Tommy Wells and I can split your $20. I raised the issue with him at the ceremony and Tommy cornered the Pepco pres who said he'll look into it.
