DC has set ambitious goals for expanding bike infrastructure. The Sustainable DC plan includes meeting the goal of 25% biking and walking by 2032. The MoveDC plan has set out a plan for a connected network of bicycle infrastructure for the whole city - including cycletracks and bike lanes.
In the short term, the 2-year MoveDC implementation plan has set out a goal of installing 15 miles total of bike lanes in 2015 and 2016. Last year, just over 9 miles of bike lanes were installed.

This document represents a kind of work plan of bike lanes that DDOT staff are currently planning to work on towards fulfilling the 2-year implementation plan. Lanes are included here based on a combination of priority and feasibility.
