DGS has been building, maintaining, & sustaining the District— investing over $7.4 billion in our cities’ facilities for the last 15 years! We celebrated many of the District’s unsung heroes— from the people who lay the groundwork, to those who build the foundation, to the ones solving problems to keep the work of good government going in DC.
We can’t wait to continue this work for the next 15+ years! Thank you, Team DGS!🎉

That means traffic, road closures, and a great time to rely on our world-class public transportation.
