This informal shared parking occurs during special events that occur in downtown including Orioles baseball and Ravens football games. PEDESTRIAN ENVIRONMENT: The majority of the streets within 0.6 miles radius of the station have sidewalks at least on one side of the road. Sidewalks are generally in good condition. Several sidewalk gaps were found on the Shawan Road which is the main access to the station. Businesses outside the mall along the Shawan Road and the York Road are not well connected. Signalized pedestrian crossings were present at the intersection of Shawan and McCormick Road and at the entrance to the mall. BICYCLING ENVIRONMENT: There are no bicycle racks or lockers present in the station area. The roads are generally wide enough to accommodate bicycles, however no marked bike lanes are provided. A very popular off-road hiker-bike trail nearby is the Northern Central Railroad (NCR) trail. However, the trail is not easily accessible at this time from the light rail station.
