@MDSHA @MCDOTNow @MoCoCouncilMD Almost half of non-motorists struck on Old Georgetown Rd are people on🚲. This shows:

1. There is demand for🚲routes on Old Georgetown Rd.
2. Biking on Old Georgetown Rd is not safe.

We need a plan NOW for protected🚲routes AND wider sidewalks on Old Georgetown Rd.

@MDSHA @MCDOTNow @MoCoCouncilMD Hey @mocoboe @MCPS - Woodward HS is on Old Georgetown Rd. Kids will bike. What will you do so that kids can bike *safely*?

@MDSHA @MCDOTNow @MoCoCouncilMD People in 🚗get 90% of the space on Old Georgetown Rd.

People on 👣🚲♿️ get 10%.

How is that acceptable?

@MDSHA @MCDOTNow @MoCoCouncilMD @montgomeryplans @completestreets In DC, on-street parking is a higher priority than the lives of people on bikes.

In #MoCo, motor vehicle throughput is a higher priority than the lives of people on bikes.

For shame.
