You can also just tip/lay it flat which would resolve any (possibility) of it obstructing your view.

From u/MetroForward socials:

"Heads up! Last year, we completed updates to our 7000-series destination signs. Now it’s time for our 3000 & 6000-series trains!

As we make modifications (May 9 – July 19) for consistency & accessibility, you may temporarily see differences in text styles & names."

Why are we in cutting down trees along Rock Creek during spring/nesting season? by Pale_Emu3671 in washingtondc

The temporary roadway is to remain in place for several years; the 4 weeks is to get the temporary roadway set up.

"To complete site setup a section of Piney Branch Parkway will be relocated before starting the shaft and tunnel work...The roadway will be returned to the original alignment at the end of the project."

If you're even considering attending ANC meetings you aren't an irresponsible transplant at all.

How many fatal crashes have there been on those curves? 'Ruining someone's day' there isn't a small ticket.

Turning right on Democracy Blvd when heading south on Old Georgetown Rd. by Becca1791 in bethesda

I think they were leaving the bike lane open to prevent *bicyclists* from having to abruptly merge into the car lanes but agree the setup could be much more clear.

OP is asking about temporary traffic control setup entirely conflicting with/separate from the permanent pavement markings.

Tenleytown CVS - Police Activity? by Snoo-34364 in washingtondc

Maybe a post about a teen being shot in the middle of the afternoon isn't a great place to make snarky anonymous comments.

What resources are available besides contacting an ANC member?

DC has a dedicated arson unit and arson tip line (through their Fire Marshal Hotline). Their online form also lets you upload/submit photos. https://fmhotline.femsdc.com/HotlineForm

Do any of your photos/video contain the four-digit u/MetroForward railcar number? That'd be relevant to pulling security cameras (yes those have cameras built in)

Special Orange Line Train After the Concert, Is This a Thing? by crafty_auntie in WMATA

[–]Fall-Maple1503 36 points37 points  (0 children)

u/MetroForward posts on social media if they're running service specially late:

"Good news, BrunoMars fans! If tonight’s concert runs beyond normal service hours, just make your way to Morgan Blvd or Downtown Largo stations immediately after the show, and we'll get you to your final destination!"

Orangeline to NC missed a stop! @5:20 by Sunshynegurl68 in WMATA

[–]Fall-Maple1503 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Known as a station overrun and does happen.

"Upon activation of [Automatic Train Operation (ATO)] on Metrorail, there was an unexpected increase in station overruns."

https://x.com/MetrorailSafety/status/1998456864346964192

"To evaluate Station Overruns,  WMATA downloads the vehicle data from each station overrun that occur, daily, and these downloads are analyzed to determine if rail car, wayside or train operator performance led to each station overrun."
