Project Overview
The Office of Transportation is conducting a study to evaluate the feasibility of providing pedestrian and bicycle facilities along Montgomery Road between Deborah Jean Drive and Rowanberry Drive.
The study seeks to implement the County’s Complete Streets Design Manual in this area, and and will include concept layouts of potential improvements.
Project Details
The feasibility study included the following measures:
- Gather and evaluate available existing information and data within the project limits. This will include GIS information, identification of major pedestrian/bike generators, field observations, roadway posted speed limits, roadway characteristics within the corridor, and any available crash data.
- Identify constraints and evaluate impacts of proposed concepts including drainage and SWM concerns, as well as potential environmental,
grading, right-of-way, and utility impacts. - Develop concept layouts for proposed pedestrian and bicycle facilities within the project limits.
- Host a public meeting to discuss the study and facilitate feedback from residents.
- Create a final report of the study, which will include a description of the existing corridor, critical elements/constraints within the
corridor, and the proposed concepts.
Public Meeting and Input
A public meeting will be held on Thursday, May 22, 2025, to discuss the concepts created for the feasibility study.
The meeting flyer can be viewed here.
A survey will be available for the public to provide feedback on the project concepts. The survey will be available on this webpage until Friday, June 6, 2025.
