  • Master Sector Plans from Tech Report
    August 2013 Purple Line – Social Effects and Land Use Planning Technical Report 3.2 Affected Environment 3.2.1 Land Use, Zoning, and Planned Development The Purple Line study area comprises a variety of urban and suburban land uses, including residential, commercial, recreational, institutional, and industrial (see Figure 18). Land use in the Montgomery County portion of the corridor is largely residential, with commercial development in Bethesda and Silver Spring. In the Prince George’s County portion of the corridor, land uses include relatively large areas of recreational, institutional, and commercial uses scattered among primarily residential communities. Housing types and densities within the study area include single-family dwellings and both low-rise and high-rise apartment buildings. Clusters of higher density mixed-use development characterize the five major activity centers of Bethesda, Silver Spring, Takoma/Langley Park, College Park, and New Carrollton. With the exception of the area surrounding the University of Maryland (UMD) campus and M Square, most of the remainder of developed land in the study area contains low to medium-density residential and commercial uses. Current zoning concentrates urban growth around activity centers to support transit oriented development (TOD). Specialized TOD zoning districts where mixed-use development is permitted are located in downtown Bethesda and in the areas around the following proposed Purple Line stations, East Campus, College Park, Annapolis Road/Glenridge, and New Carrollton (see Figure 19). The mixed-use and commercial development zoning at other proposed Purple Line station locations also would be compatible with transit stations. Zoning is directed by land use planning efforts, including the Master Plans and Sector Plans discussed in the following section.

  • Preferred Purple Line Alignment
    3. PREFERRED PURPLE LINE ALIGNMENT This section of the staff memo reviews the issues related to the preferred alignment of the Purple Line raised by MPAG members, in testimony at the MTA hearings, by other interested citizens and stakeholders, elected officials and staff. The staff’s analysis is supplemented by other technical sources and input from the MTA Project Team, MPAG members, or other interested parties. The staff recommends the Medium Investment LRT Alternative alignment that uses the Master Planned Georgetown Branch Right of Way and features a surface alignment on Wayne Aveune. The staff also recommends the following: There should be no station at Dale Drive. The trail through the tunnel component of the High Investment alternatives should be added and made part of the preferred alignment or alternative. The tunnel under Wayne Avenue to a location in the vicinity of Mansfield Road should be studied further. Station Area Issues The staff finds there are three key components to consider with respect to Purple Line station area issues – estimated ridership at the proposed stations, walk access (primarily distance), and urban design and economic development objectives. Estimated Ridership Overall ridership estimates for the Purple Line for an average weekday in 2030 for the TSM and original six build alternatives are shown in the below. TABLE 11 – Ridership Overall The AA/DEIS also includes estimates for the average weekday boardings by station in 2030. These estimates are presented below: 56 TABLE 12 – Ridership By Station The first thing to note when considering station ridership and the potential alignment of the Purple Line is that some stations are excluded from some alignments (and therefore alternatives): The LRT alternatives do not provide a direct connection with the existing Bethesda Metrorail (north) entrance.

A team led by Fluor Corporation, in a public-private partnership with the State of Maryland, will build seventeen new rail stations and four stops at existing Metrorail stations. The new transit corridor stretches sixteen miles from New Carrollton in Prince George’s County to Bethesda in Montgomery County, with the new stations split evenly between the two counties. In 2014, the Federal Transit Administration recommended $900 million in federal grants for the project. Prince George’s and Montgomery Counties are expected to contribute about $330 million, and the state estimates that it will spend $3.3 billion over 36 years on the Purple Line (Office of Governor Larry Hogan 2016).
