Justification

A new station will be necessary in this area due to the present and projected population density for the Clarksburg area. The Clarksburg population was estimated at 18,709 in 2015 (ACS), with increases to almost 40,000 by 2025. The Clarksburg Town Center is envisioned to include a mix of housing, commercial, retail, recreation and civic uses with the Clarksburg Historic District as the focal point. Residential areas include the Newcut Road neighborhood, the Cabin Branch neighborhood, the Ten Mile Creek area, the Ridge Road transition area, the Brink Road transition area, as well as projected residential development in the Transit Corridor District and the Gateway Center. This project was recommended in the Fire, Rescue, Emergency Medical Services and Community Risk Reduction Master Plan approved by the County Council in October 2005 and the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service Station Location and Resource Allocation Work Group, Phase I Report, "Need for Upcounty Fire-Rescue Resource Enhancements, October 14, 1999.
