Public Meeting - Spring 2019
Public input is a significant part of the overall design and eventual construction for Penn Ave West. In late spring of 2019, DDOT provided updates to ANC2A and ANC2B and hosted a public meeting to solicit feedback on the concept design. Additional stakeholder coordination meetings are ongoing and planned. As DDOT advances the Penn Ave West concept through the project development process in 2019, DDOT will continue to refine the design.

Environmental Process
As the concept for Penn Ave West advances, it will be developed with the surrounding context in mind, including the natural, cultural, and human environment. DDOT will comply with the National Environmental Policy Act using a Level 3 Categorical Exclusion (CE-3) document. Compliance with related laws, such as the National Historic Preservation Act and the Endangered Species Act, will be completed in parallel with preparation of the CE-3 document, as applicable.
DDOT also will be coordinating with other agencies and organizations to ensure an opportunity for input and that consultation takes place where appropriate.
