Pedestrian Access

 

Strategic Roadway Safety Plan


Prince George’s County has completed its first Strategic Roadway Safety Plan. The plan is modeled after Maryland’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan and the state’s Toward Zero Deaths approach. The plan utilizes crash data including pedestrian-vehicle and bicycle-vehicle crashes to create reduction targets and reduce serious injuries and fatalities in half by 2030.

 

 

Capital Bike Share Planning


Prince George’s County has planned thirty (30) additional Bike Share stations to compliment the twenty-four (24) existing Bike Share stations already operating across the County. The Stations will be funded in part by the Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) State Highway Administration's (MDSHA) Transportation Alternative Program (TAP). See the Prince George's County Capital BikeShare Planning Map 
The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission was awarded grants by the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments’ Transportation/Land Use Connections Program and the State Highway Administration’s Maryland Bikeways Program to design the Central Avenue Connector Trail. Once constructed this trail will connect four blue line Metro stations: Capitol Heights, Addison Road, Morgan Boulevard, and Largo Metro stations. View a map of the proposed route.
