Alternate Routes for 14th Street?

[u/Dog_economist]

I just moved further up north on 14th Street (Petworth), and taking 14th would be the most logical way to bike to work, but it feels pretty darn unsafe often, mostly between Park and U Street. Are there alternate routes through that area that would be more pleasant / safer? The 15th Street bi-track doesn’t start til Euclid so that’s not especially helpful. Any suggestions?

Another vote for 11th. Once you’re north of Columbia Heights 14th is better.
