selected to participate in a spring 2012 safety campaign called Neighborhood Drive 25.
This campaign lasts one month and uses the tools of education and
enforcement to reduced travel speeds on targeted neighborhood streets
without the use of physical traffic calming measures. In the
Williamsburg neighborhood, North Ohio Street and 28th Street North have been identified for this spring’s campaign. For more details, please see this letter, dated April 16, 2012, from Mary Hynes, Chair of the Arlington County Board.
