The signs on the west side of Henry Bacon Drive (in front of the concession stand) clearly state that there is no parking anytime for vehicles and NO stopping or standing for buses during rush hour. However, EVERY DAY during rush hour there are multiple buses that idle/park there waiting to disgorge/engulf their tourists. This takes away one of two lanes to access Memorial Bridge, a key route out of DC and backs traffic up on Constitution Ave, NW westbound. It is inentirely illegal and neither US Park Police nor MPD is ever there to give tickets. And the bus drivers don't care because they don't pay the tickets and work for out-of-state companies. I think the police should hang out there and give tickets daily until the tour bus companies get the message.

Drivers going west on Park Rd routinely run the red right-turn arrow to turn right onto Park. They seem to think the green light for going straight onto Klingle applies to them, not noticing the red right-turn arrow. It is dangerous for pedestrians crossing Park on the north side. Could we get improved signage or some traffic-calming measure here?

Illegal parking has always been a problem on this stretch of Whitehaven, but since there's been construction at the Islamic Center, it's frequently completely blocked--particularly on Friday afternoons. People are often forced to back up onto Massachusetts or turn around and go the wrong way down the one-way because there's no other way to escape.
Enforcement of yellow-curb parking needs to be stepped up, particularly on Friday afternoons; at the very least, the contractor needs to be warned about blocking the road entirely. If none of those are possible, then it needs to be blocked at the top when the road is impassible, to prevent drivers from inadvertently getting stuck--or performing illegal and dangerous maneuvers to get off the blocked one-way.
