** Here's our roundup of "must-read" posts from the week:
------------------------------------------------------------
What gets counted, counts. And normally what gets counted is cars. But in Rock Creek Park, 70 volunteers worked to change that by counting the pedestrians, bicyclists and even dogs using Beach Drive while it's closed to vehicle traffic during the pandemic. Will it stay that way? The volunteers sure hope so.
It's hard winning more space for bikes elsewhere in the city too. One bike lane by Union Station got an unlikely hero to help out: a googly-eyed painted corn broom. June the Broom is a year old this week!
If only all of Union Station's problems could be solved by brooms. The train station needs updates, but getting all the stakeholders on the same page isn't easy.
Keeping track of all the stakeholders working to build up Tysons is also a monumental task. We read through the latest update on construction around Tysons so you don't have to.
Finally, we know Greater Washington isn't only thinking about local news this week, but here's an area where the local and the national converge: President-Elect Joe Biden has appointed the current District Department of Transportation director to his transition team, as well as a former holder of the same role.
