Mamie “Peanut” Johnson was more than a baseball trailblazer. She was a nurse, a barrier breaker, and part of DC history.

Mayor Bowser, DC leaders, and artist Rania Hassan came together to celebrate her legacy with "Curve", a new sculpture at the plaza named in her honor.

Watch to hear more about Mamie’s story and the sculpture bringing her legacy to life in DC.

It’s Crash Responder Safety Week. Traffic incident response takes a team effort involving EMS, law enforcement, fire and rescue, public works, towing and recovery, transportation, and other disciplines. DDOT’s Roadway Operations Patrol (ROP) is part of that effort, responding to incidents, emergencies, and roadway activity throughout the District.

If you see a crash scene or support for roadside assistance, stay alert, slow down, move over, and give responders room to work safely. Their safety helps keep everyone on the road safe.
For roadway assistance, call 671-DDOT (3368).

The Capital Region moves forward when we all work and move together. On Wednesday, November 4, our Director Sharon Kershbaum joined transportation leaders from Maryland, Virginia, and WMATA on a panel at the 9th Annual Capital Region Transportation Forum.

They discussed shared priorities, partnerships, and how collaborations can support safer transportation solutions that serve and connect the communities across the region.

Thank you to the Greater Washington Partnership and the Greater Washington Board of Trade for hosting the forum.
