Alert DC Transportation Incident

SunTrust National Marathon Street Closings on Saturday, March 20, 2010

WASHINGTON, D.C. –The 5th Annual SunTrust National Marathon, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield National Half Marathon and Relay Races will be run on Saturday, March 20, 2010, with a 7 a.m. start time and 1 p.m. finish time. This half-day event includes a 26.2-mile marathon, a 13.1 mile half marathon, and relay races. The race route starts and ends at RFK Stadium and runs through six of the city's eight wards. Race officials advise the public that temporary, intermittent street closings will be in effect on Saturday, March 20, 2010; starting at 6:45 a.m. Vehicles may be parked along the route; however they will not be allowed to be moved once runners enter the area to ensure that no moving vehicles will collide with participants. Affected streets have been posted with temporary “Official Course Routeâ€Ã‚ signage. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) will handle the alteration of traffic patterns and enforce moving violations.



Each posted MPD officer on the course route will be supplied with a Race Day Operations Guide with detailed information on open access routes, detour plans and bump cross routes in Capitol Hill. Note that between the marathon and half-marathon races, the event course encompasses six wards of the city in two large loops. East Capitol Street from 13th Street, NE to 2nd Street NE will be closed to all vehicular traffic starting at 6:45 a.m. It will reopen at approximately 10:45 a.m. Residents of Capitol Hill, who normally use East Capitol to get to or from their homes, will be allowed intermittent north bound/southbound travel across East Capitol Street at the following bump cross route locations: 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 15th and 17th Streets. Vehicular traffic at each bump cross route is monitored by MPD and flows at their discretion.



Metrorail will be opening early at 5:00 a.m. and running on a normal Saturday schedule.



Some bus lines will be affected; WMATA will advise as to these bus route detours and delays.



Drivers along Connecticut Avenue between Florida Avenue and M Street NW should be advised that they are likely to experience delays between 7 a.m. and 8:35 a.m. Minnesota Avenue in SE Washington will be closed to traffic from approximately 8:55 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Other delays are expected.



Persons with unessential travel should avoid driving in all areas affected by the event. Massachusetts Avenue, Rhode Island Avenue and New York Avenue provide the best options for crossing the route.

Metrorail is another useful alternative. It is imperative that District residents review the route map and times of closures to confirm whether desired routes will be available, and to identify streets, which may be used to get around the race route and to other parts of the city.



Public safety officials are committed to reopening streets along the route as quickly as it is safe to do so. For more information, please visit www.NationalMarathon.com.

Virginia State Bus Roadeo Competition Heads to Alexandria(Alexandria, VA)  Alexandria Transit Company (ATC) will be hosting the annual Virginia State Bus Roadeo on Saturday, March 20 and Sunday, March 21.  Twenty-seven top drivers and twenty-one mechanics from eight transit companies across the State will compete in a spirited battle of the buses.The roadeo tests the driving and knowledge skills of bus operators in an obstacle course that mirrors the specific driving maneuvers and encounters frequently experienced in the course of their daily work behind the wheel of their bus.  The drivers must demonstrate safety habits and smoothness of operation and are rated on both while driving through each situation on the course. The operators' knowledge of safety regulations and bus equipment are also tested through a written safety quiz and performance of a pre-trip bus inspection on a bus that has been altered to contain several defects.  As part of the measure of professionalism, the operators are also rated on personal appearance in full regulation uniforms.  "Alexandria Transit is very excited to be hosting the event this year.  DASH will be incorporating some of the competition inside of its new facility, which is a first in Virginia," stated Ms. Sandy Modell, DASH's general manager. On Saturday, the ATC garage will be the venue for testing mechanics' skills on engines, airbrakes, and overall bus maintenance. Teams of mechanics from the different transit companies compete to diagnose and repair various mechanical problems.  Instructors from the J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College will be assisting with the mechanics competition. Competing transit systems include:  Alexandria DASH; Fairfax Connector; Lynchburg; Richmond; Roanoke; Arlington Transit; Potomac & Rappahanock; and Hampton Roads.  The winners will go on to compete in the International Bus Roadeo next month in Cleveland, Ohio, which is sponsored by the American Public Transportation Association.

The caller wanted to know how long it would take her to get to Walmart. He told her to take a valid ID and $99. He instructed her to go to Money Gram at Walmart and request a sending and receiving form. The caller asked her to call him when she got to Walmart. He instructed her not to tell Money Gram what the sending or receiving form is for. He gave her the receiving information as: Name- BHANDAR1 Country- India State: Delhi. When the female got to Walmart, she dialed (914) 292-9277. The original caller answered the phone.

March 16, 2010 is Tornado Preparedness Day in Arlington County. Unlike hurricane season, there is no such thing as a "tornado season," and no part of the Commonwealth is immune from tornadoes. They can hit at any time of the year and at any time of the day.
There are two things that every family, business and organization should do to get ready:

1. Get a NOAA Weather Radio with SAME alerts.
2. Participate in the statewide tornado drill Tuesday, March 16, at 9:45 a.m.

"NOAA Weather Radios are the best way of getting tornado warnings," said Bill Sammler, NWS warning coordination meteorologist. "A network of radio stations broadcasts weather data from the nearest National Weather Service office. When a tornado warning is issued, the Weather Radio sounds an alarm followed by information on where the storm is, which way it's moving, and telling people in its path to take cover."

SAME alerts stands for Specific Area Message Encoding, a feature that lets you program your radio for your area. NOAA Weather Radios are available at electronics and sporting goods stores, department stores, boating stores and online. They come in battery-powered models and many also have AM/FM band. Some have strobe lights for the hearing impaired. Prices start at about $30.

March 16 is also the state wide preparedness drill. Arlington schools, businesses and residents have an opportunity to practice their tornado safety plans. At the same time, the National Weather Service will be testing their public warning systems.

The general rule for tornado safety is "go low and stay low", which means go to the lowest level of the structure, away from windows and crouch in a low position with your head covered.

A tornado watch means current weather conditions may result in a tornado. A tornado warning means a tornado has been sighted. If a tornado warning has been issued for your area, you should take cover immediately.

The majority of tornadoes occur between 3 and 9 pm. Think of where you would normally be during that time…at school, work, home, or in the car. You may only have a few seconds to react. Decide NOW where you would go if a tornado warning were issued.

Tornadoes can occur with little or no advance warning. It is important to have a weather radio nearby so you can listen for tornado and other severe weather watches and warnings.

If the National Weather service issues a tornado warning for Arlington, your weather radio will sound an alert, indicating that you need to move to a safe area immediately.

Pre-set your battery operated radio to 1700 AM Arlington for up to date emergency information including weather emergencies.

Arlington County is participating in tornado preparedness with the Arlington County Office of Emergency Management, Arlington Schools, Arlington Chapter of the American Red Cross, the Citizen Corps Council, and the Community Emergency Response Teams. At 9:45 a.m., the NWS will send a "test" tornado warning on NOAA Weather Radio. This will prompt radio and television stations to broadcast a test message. Some NOAA Weather Radios will not automatically turn on when receiving a "test" signal, so participants should turn on their radios approximately five minutes before the start of the drill.

For more information about tornado preparedness, please visit www.arlingtonva.us as well as the Virginia Department of Emergency Management's special section of the Web site devoted solely to tornado safety and preparedness: http://www.vaemergency.com/threats/tornado/index.cfm. dlp/oem

At 7:10 this AM a mountain lion was seen in the vicinity of 50 Roan Place in Woodside California. This is the third time in 10 days that a mountain lion had been seen in the same area.

If you see a mountain lion DO NOT APPROACH IT, especially one that is feeding or with kittens. Most mountain lions will try to avoid confrontation.

Here are a few tips:

Avoid hiking or jogging when mountain lions are most active—dawn, dusk, and at night.

Keep a close watch on small children.

If you encounter a mountain lion, do not run; instead, face the animal, make noise and try to look bigger by waving your arms; throw rocks or other objects.

Pick up small children.

Weekend Closure of Chain Bridge. Work Delayed by Inclement Weather Now Rescheduled.

The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is advising motorists that it plans to completely close the Chain Bridge on the weekend of March 12-15 for reconstruction work on the bridge deck, approaches and structural steel beams. This work was originally scheduled for late January and early February but was delayed by multiple snow storms and sub-freezing temperatures.

Weather permitting, Chain Bridge will be closed from 8 pm on Friday, March 12 until 5 am on Monday, March 15.

There will be no access to the bridge from either the District or Arlington. That includes cyclists and pedestrians because the sidewalk will also be closed.

Thru traffic on Canal Road will not be obstructed, but motorists will not be able to turn onto Chain Bridge.

Motorists are advised to use alternate routes and river crossings including the American Legion, Key, Roosevelt, Memorial and 14th Street Bridges.

Variable Messages Boards will be in place to warn drivers of the work ahead and re-direct them to alternative routes.

Crews will be pouring new concrete and the bridge closures are necessary to give the concrete time to properly strengthen. Workers will also be replacing the expansion joints and streetlights on the bridge. To complete the work, additional weekend closures may be necessary later this month.

The project began on June 1, 2009. It was originally anticipated that the work on the bridge deck would be completed in late January, but the schedule has been significantly impacted by the severe weather this winter. smj/OEM

At midnight March 10, 2010 TWO (2) mountain lions were seen in the vicinity of 7900 LaHonda Road in La Honda, California.

If you see mountain lions DO NOT APPROACH THEM, especially one that is feeding or with kittens. Most mountain lions will try to avoid confrontation.

Here are a few tips:

Avoid hiking or jogging when mountain lions are most active—dawn, dusk, and at night.

Keep a close watch on small children.

If you encounter mountain lions, do not run; instead, face the animal, make noise and try to look bigger by waving your arms; throw rocks or other objects.

Pick up small children.
