Wheeler Rd Public Meeting Held on March 13, 2025

Washington, D.C. (March 13, 2025) — The District Department of Transportation (DDOT), in collaboration with engineering consulting firm PSI, hosted a public meeting at the True Gospel Tabernacle Baptist Church to discuss upcoming safety improvements for the Wheeler Road SE corridor.

The project area, stretching from Alabama Avenue SE to Southern Avenue SE, aims to deliver multiple long-term safety enhancements to the corridor, especially near local schools.

The design was carefully researched and developed to optimize safety for all users and transportation modes. Key project objectives include reducing speeding, significantly improving safety for pedestrians and cyclists, and creating safer routes adjacent to KIPP DC and Eagle Academy.
