The Long Bridge Project represents a once in a generation opportunity to transform our regional transportation network.

We have an opportunity to build the finest Potomac River trail crossing in an unlikely place: the Long Bridge.

Hundreds of people spoke up to ask for a better design for Long Bridge. This bicycle and pedestrian connection across the Potomac River is a critical connection that could connect Long Bridge Park in Arlington with the Southwest Waterfront in DC.

DDOT’s Long Bridge project should include a new trail connection linking Crystal City to the SW Waterfront, Hains Point and the Mount Vernon Trail, but the current plans treats the river as the only barrier for people who bike and walk, ignoring two major highways and the tangle of dangerous intersections, congested sidewalks, and freeway ramps that separate DC from Arlington. DDOT can do better, but they need to hear from you.

DDOT wants feedback on possible plans for a new train bridge across the Potomac River. This is a once in a century opportunity for a new, high-quality trail connection between popular DC and Arlington trails.
