This Wednesday was Walk to School Day, a day to celebrate non-car modes of transportation for kids getting to school. In Ward 6, families gathered with white pinwheels to commemorate lives lost to traffic violence.

Sadly, on Walk To School Day itself, a driver hit a family walking to school, injuring a father and two children. The Congress Heights intersection where the incident happened is currently under consideration for traffic calming.

Also this week, as part of Street Sense Media's news blitz on DC homelessness, we wrote about the link between homelessness and our region's housing shortage.

That conversation took on extra weight this week as the District debated a controversial encampment clearing program that resulted in a bulldozer driver lifting a person inside a tent. GGWash Executive Director Chelsea Allinger writes that the incident displays a "bureaucratic failure," saying DC needs to do better.
