This project provides for the design, land acquisition, and construction of 1,300 linear feet of roadway widening and resurfacing along Snouffer School Road between Centerway Road and Turkey Thicket Drive and a new traffic signal at Alliston Hollow Way and Turkey Thicket Drive, providing left-turn lanes at both signals as well as providing for grading for two northern lanes and resurfacing two southern lanes from Turkey Thicket Drive to Alliston Hollow Way. The closed-section roadway typical section consists of two through lanes southbound and one through lane northbound separated by a raised median, an eight-foot shared use path on the northern side, and a five-foot sidewalk on the southern side within a 100-foot right-of-way. The sidewalk and shared use path will extend for a distance of 2,500 linear feet from Centerway Road to Alliston Hollow Way. The project will include a bridge for the northbound traffic lanes and replacement of the existing bridge for the southbound traffic lane over Cabin Branch, street lights, storm drainage, stormwater management, landscaping, and utility relocations.

Average Daily Traffic is projected to be 15,000 vehicles per day by 2015.

Project will be completed in FY24.

This project is part of the County's Smart Growth Initiative for the relocation of the Public Safety Training Academy and the Montgomery County Public School (MCPS) Food Services Facility to the Webb Tract and will provide improved access to the new facilities. This project is also needed to meet the existing and future traffic and pedestrian demands in the area. The Airpark Project Area of the Gaithersburg Vicinity Planning Area is experiencing growth with plans for commercial and residential development. This project meets the recommendations of the area Master Plan and enhances regional connectivity. It will improve traffic flow by providing additional traffic lanes and encourage alternative means of mobility through proposed bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
