I think DDOT should control and at first have WMATA operate it for a period of 5 years during which time a feasibility study could be completed regarding if DDOT, a DDOT contractor, or WMATA would be the best to operate the system. DDOT could also contract it out from the beginning.
Guys, please be polite. Remember that these people are your neighbors. I ask also that anonymous users leave some kind of tag [e.g. big green cat] for the sake of being able to follow a thread. Be respectful and have fun.
Not WMATA. Anyone else. Code Pink. The Heritage Foundation. Anyone.

ReplyDeleteI think that DDOT should be in charge of the streetcars as WMATA has a difficult time just overseeing the buses and metro system.
ReplyDeleteDDOT should own it then contract the job out to the Circulator contractor. No brainer.
ReplyDeleteKeep WMATA as far away from this thing as possible!
I am self proclaimed king of the street cars. I will have to smack around Vince Gray for his insolence.
ReplyDeleteAll hail his royal majesty Obed Marsh the Street Car King!
@dolemite.
ReplyDeleteI do believe WMATA is the contractor for the circulator.
