In FY2020, WMATA will launch a $15.5 billion, 10-year capital improvement program focused on addressing its maintenance backlog, creating a sustainable operating model and bring riders back by providing safe, reliable, affordable services. This plan, in conjunction with its first ever Energy Action Plan (though 2025) highlight key projects to increase the reliability of the fleet by retiring its oldest set of railcar, replace buses and develop a bus priority corridor network, and invest in infrastructure that make the system safer, more accessible and flexible. The Energy Action Plan focuses on implementing actions identified in their recent energy audit, modernizing design, construction & operations to improve efficiency in construction and operations, and energy market engagement including renewable energy, demand management, and utility rebates. Some of the energy plan's actions are already underway, such as its regenerative braking work to store and reuse energy captured by Metrorail braking, upgrading station & parking lot lighting to LEDs, and accelerating replacement of outdated station chillers with more efficient technology. WMATA is also investing in new fare payment systems and developing an electric bus deployment strategy, and designing all new and significantly renovated facilities to LEED Platinum standards. WMATA estimates that by 2025 they will have avoided 160,000 metric tons of CO2e and saved $16 million in energy costs, as well as $13 million in operations and maintenance costs.Metro is also accelerating the retirement of the oldest and most unreliable cars, commissioning a total of 30 new trains, and implementing the Railcar Get Well Plan to reduce passenger offloads and cut delays due to train car issues by 25%. Finally, WMATA's newest 7000 series of Metrorail cars have LCD map displays to allow customers to easily track their location and LED screens that provide current and upcoming station information.The DC Streetcar launched service in February 2016, and in 2017, added Sunday service and decreased headways. In 2017, the streetcar carried more than 1.1 million riders. DDOT is now working on the Benning Road Streetcar Extension, a 1.95-mile surface fixed guide way. A planned study will address potential impacts of the project, as well as preliminary engineering (conceptual) for the line. In addition, DDOT has received an alternatives analysis grant from the Federal Transit Administration to study premium transit options -- high quality transit that offers improved liability and speed -- from Union Station to Georgetown which was also proposed as a streetcar corridor. The purpose of the study is to provide premium transit between those points and includes construction for the K St transitway.

The District has reduced registration fees for hybrids and electric vehicles, and exemption from the excise tax for vehicles rated at 40 miles per gallon or more. The recent Clean Energy DC Omnibus Act requires revising the vehicle excise tax calculations such that vehicles with a fuel efficiency below a set benchmark will pay an increased excise tax amount, and vehicles with a fuel efficiency above the benchmark will pay a decreased tax or receive an excise tax rebate, based on how far above the fuel efficiency standard the vehicle is. Residents claiming the District Earned Income Tax Credit are exempt from these modifications. DOEE continues to gather EV and hybrid registration data from the DMV, which is being used to help prioritize sites for the deployment of EV chargers. There are roughly 120 different charging station locations throughout the District, of which the District operates 7. In May 2018, Mayor Bowser signed an order to implement the Clean Cars Act of 2008 to maintain strong vehicle standards even as the current national government prepares draft regulations to roll back vehicle emissions and fuel economy standards. The Department of For-Hire Vehicles offered an incentive program -- $10,000 to help cab owners purchase electric vehicles -- to encourage the purchase of electric vehicles. The purchase of an EV or a plug-in hybrid vehicle is also one of four limited pathways to obtaining a city taxi license (H tag). Today there are 135 electric and 885 hybrid taxis operating in the city and two charging stations at Union Station (a large taxi hub) for their use. The Clean Energy DC Omnibus Amendment Act of 2018 requires the District to develop a transportation electrification program, requiring all public buses, private fleets with a capacity of 50+, and taxis to be zero-emission vehicles by 2045. Furthermore, it requires the District’s Department of Transportation to submit a plan for achieving 100% replacement of public buses, including school buses, with electric buses upon the end of their useful life, by calendar year 2021.Finally, in its own procurement, District Government has multiple strategies to reduce GHG emissions from its municipal fleet. The Department of Public Work’s (DPW) multiyear capital improvement plan establishes yearly goals for vehicle replacement set to attain maximum fuel efficiency and meet or exceed emissions standards, including goals to increase electric and hybrid vehicles. The District uses biodiesel blends in all of its diesel vehicles. The district’s anti-idling regulation (20 DCMR 900) applies to government-owned vehicles and limits idling to 3 minutes or less.

The following plans, policies, and actions are strategies to help achieve this goal. The 2005 Bicycle Master Plan recommended strategies to improve and expand the bike route system, provide functional and distinctive signs for the system, and recommended improving and expanding off-road bicycle routes. Bicycle wayfinding and route signs have been added in two major rounds, 2010 and 2012 and bike parking is required in all buildings that provide car parking in the District. Currently there are 81 miles of bike lanes in the District and DDOT has identified 7 more miles that could be installed in 2018, along with the study of three additional corridors. DDOT's current Downtown Bike Lane Pilot Project is working to improve bicycle safety and access in the downtown area while maintaining the transportation function of downtown Washington, which is particularly important as DDOT expands to a larger, regional, bike sharing system of more than 1,100 bikes by the end of the year. The Capital Bikeshare program has a total of 290 stations in the District and 516 stations in the entire system. In addition to infrastructure for the bikeshare system, DDOT installed nearly 250 bike racks across the District, and bicycle parking is required in all buildings that provide car parking.Additionally, DDOT transitioned its dockless bikeshare pilot program to an official permitted program for dockless vehicles (bikes and scooters) on January 1, 2019. This is a new approach that enables bikeshare and scootershare systems to operate without physical stations. Such technology can expand transportation options in the District, and provide access in areas in which DDOT has not yet been able to add bikeshare infrastructure. Currently there are six companies operating bicycles or scooters, with a maximum of 600 vehicles per permit. Finally, DDOT has plans to launch an Adaptive Bikeshare program with hand tricycles, recumbent tricycles, cargo-bikes, and tandems to expand options for residents with different abilities. The District has committed to the Vision Zero initiative to eliminate traffic fatalities. As part of the Vision Zero initiative, DDOT has begun a number of initiatives through its newly created Vision Zero office, including eliminating dual left-turn conflicts, left turn hardening, working with different materials to protect bikelanes, implementing higher fines for dangerous behaviors and conducting enforcement blitzes, adding slow zones, and launching pick-up / drop-off zones.
