This project provides for planning and reconstructing various existing intersections in Montgomery County and for an annual congestion study to identify locations where there is a need for congestion mitigation. The project also includes the identification and implementation of corridor modifications and traffic calming treatments to enhance pedestrian safety. At these identified locations either construction begins immediately, or detailed design plans are prepared and developed into future projects. Additionally, this project provides for the design and construction for safety improvement measures in support of HIA and Vision Zero efforts. The projects listed below reflect their current status.

Cost increase due to the addition of FY27 and FY28 to this ongoing project.

Ongoing studies conducted by the Division of Traffic Engineering and Operations indicate that many corridors and intersections need traffic calming modifications as well as capacity and/or vehicular and pedestrian safety improvements.

Examples of recently completed and soon to be completed projects: MacArthur Boulevard at Oberlin Avenue, Cheshire Drive at Old Georgetown Road, Grandview Avenue at Reedie Drive, Judson Road at Henderson Avenue, Wildcat Road at Brink Road and Blueridge Avenue at Georgia Avenue. Projects scheduled for completion in FY23 and beyond include Great Seneca Highway at Muddy Branch Road, Randolph Road at Parklawn Drive, Grandview Ave. at University Blvd., Randolph Road at Connecticut Ave., Dennis Ave. at Proctor Street, Bradley Boulevard at Wilson Lane, and several other sites. This project will help the County achieve its Vision Zero goals to reduce deaths and serious injuries on County roadways to zero by 2030.

Expenditures include $500,000 per year for corridor and intersection modifications in support of Strategy No. 4 of the County Executive's Pedestrian Safety Initiative.

A pedestrian impact analysis will be performed during design or is in progress. Expenditures will continue indefinitely.
