This project provides for State-funded planning, design, and construction of bike facilities along Randolph and Cherry Hill Road from Old Columbia Pike to the Montgomery/Prince George's County line. The project will upgrade existing facilities and complete missing segments in line with the County Bicycle Master Plan. The Master Plan recommends a separated bikeway. Where feasible, drainage, intersection safety, and lighting improvements will be included in the scope of the project.
Since no facility planning has been completed, the Department of Transportation will identify logical segments that can be built within the constraints of available state funding during preliminary design.

This bikeway facility was identified as a Tier 1 recommendation of the Bicycle Master Plan that is located within an Equity Focus Area. Additionally, developments such as Viva White Oak, the new Adventist Healthcare White Oak Medical Center, and expansion of the FDA campus warrant efforts to improve pedestrian and bicyclist facilities to increase transportation options.

State Aid reflects state grants for capital projects in Montgomery County programmed during the 2022 State General Assembly Session.

A pedestrian impact analysis will be performed during design or is in progress. The County Executive asserts that this project conforms to the requirement of relevant local plans, as required by the Maryland Economic Growth, Resource Protection and Planning Act.
