GGW: "less flooding, but other problems"

DC Water's plans for the 2200 block of Flagler Place NW made this morning's Breakfast Links post at the Greater Greater Washington blog.


Breakfast links: WMATA won't pay
Less flooding, but other problems: To deal with Bloomingdale flooding, DC Water will build a giant tunnel under some streets, but residents of those streets are upset at the plans, which could close their streets for 2-3 years and destroy trees. (City Paper)

Post from DC Water site:

On Tuesday, May 7, 2013 DC Water held a meeting with residents in the 2200 block of Flagler Place, N.W. to further discuss impacts of the First Street Tunnel project. Due to inclement weather, the meeting was moved to the Bryant Street Pumping Station. DC Water will be visiting the 2200 block of Flagler Place, N.W. to meet with residents who were unable to attend the initial meeting, followed by site meetings with residents in neighboring blocks over the coming weeks, and details on these meetings will be forthcoming.
