A judge granted a temporary restraining order halting the demolition of the Potomac Street protected bike lane. The restraining order was issued late Friday.

The mostly completed bike lane had been slated for removal by Mayor Catherine Pugh on Monday June 12.

“The Mayor has a responsibility to champion policy decisions that weigh equally the city’s stated goals of sustainability, public health, and safety,” Liz Cornish, Bikemore Executive Director said. “Bikemore has provided the Mayor with numerous recommendations to this aim. Bikemore had hoped this would have been resolved another way.”
