  • History of MDOT MTA and the Lots System
    History of Transit Organization in the Baltimore Region Transit Agencies and Service Development in the Baltimore Region OVERVIEW The Baltimore Regional Transit Governance and Funding Study will develop alternatives for how the region could structure, organize, and fund regional transit services. The approach to developing these alternatives includes working with the Baltimore Regional Transit Board (BRTB) through an iterative process of research, analysis, and stakeholder input to ensure that the alternatives are grounded in experience, respectful of history and constraints, but creative enough to recognize opportunities. This technical memo, the first in the series, focuses on the history and development of transit services in the Baltimore Region. The first step involves focusing on the history and development of transit Image from Creative Commons: ETLamborghini services in the Baltimore region to understand how the existing service network came to be and provides the context for why some regional services are operated by the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) and others by Locally Operated Transit Systems (LOTS). Our goal is that by understanding the historical perspective, we will understand the transit network, its origins and evolution and its current form. The overview and historical perspective include the development and evolution of: • State leadership for local transit services in the City of Baltimore. • State leadership for regional transit services, including the MARC commuter rail system and the Commuter Bus program.

  • Chapter 4: Transportation (PDF)
    Annapolis Comprehensive Plan Chapter 4 - Transportation CHAPTER 4: TRANSPORTATION Introduction Annapolis seeks to enhance mobility and accessibility within the city by advancing realistic and achievable land use concepts and transportation strategies. This Plan calls for a fundamental shift in transportation planning and development. The City’s efforts to improve mobility and accessibility will mean that automobile use in the city cannot be allowed to grow as a percent of total trip making. While this is a city transportation plan, it is informed by and takes into account West Street development and traffic trends outside of Annapolis that have a bearing on the city. Primary Challenges In past decades while there was still a net outflow of commuters from the city to distant work locations, incremental highway expansions were seen as reasonable solutions to the problem of peak-period congestion.6 Not any longer. Indeed the nature of the problem has changed. Today, there is a net inflow of workers and visitors each day. Transportation The movement of people and goods throughout the city and to and from the growing residential and shopping areas adjacent to the city is also now extensive. Special events to which the City plays host also add to congestion and parking problems at certain times of the year. All of this is complicated by geography and the fact that access to and from the regional highway system is confined to only a few routes. The area highway system is operating at or near its capacity, so even minor disruptions (e.g. an accident) can cause gridlock on the network of streets and highways serving the city.
