The District of Columbia Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA) also approved an increase in the enrollment cap from 801 students to 850 students. Access to and egress from the school will be provided via a new, signalized driveway, opposite Rodman Street.  A second point of egress also will be provided via the school’s existing, signalized driveway. This traffic plan will, for the first time, provide full movement access/egress to/from Wisconsin Avenue at two signalized intersections.Wells + Associates provided the transportation studies and expert witness testimony before the local Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC), and BZA that led to these approvals. Wells + Associates also recommended a Transportation Management Plan (TMP) that encourages carpooling and the use of public transportation for students and faculty/staff and restricts student drop-off/pick-up to two on-site locations and along the Middle School’s frontage on 37th Street. |
