The new transit line will cross through the park along Wayne Avenue (within its vehicular traffic lanes), across Sligo Creek via a new (widened) bridge and across the Sligo Creek Parkway. The Purple Line is planned as a 16-mile, regionally-significant, transit facility between Bethesda, Maryland (Montgomery County) and New Carrollton, Maryland (Prince George’s County), providing east- west connectivity between the Metrorail’s Red, Orange, and Green Lines. Construction will occur between 2018-2021 within the Sligo Creek Stream Valley Park. KEY INFORMATION • NCPC has approval authority of the project since the site is located on property acquired with federal funding appropriated under the 1930 Capper Cramton Act. The Act was intended to provide for the acquisition of lands in Maryland and Virginia to develop a comprehensive park, parkway, and playground system in the National Capital. -

Background and Existing Conditions Takoma/Langley Crossroads
BACKGROUND AND EXISTING CONDITIONS Takoma/Langley Crossroads Preliminary Sector Plan BACKGROUND Project Description The Takoma/Langley Crossroads (TLC) plan area is a physically aging yet thriving multicultural community located along the border of Montgomery County and Prince George’s County in Maryland. The area was named the Takoma/Langley Crossroads during the 1980s by a group of community business leaders who recognized an opportunity to unite the strengths of the businesses in unincorporated Langley Park in Prince George’s County to those within the City of Takoma Park in Montgomery County. The plan area core is a mixture of low- to medium-density strip commercial centers around which are a variety of housing types with single-family detached dwellings predominant south of University Boulevard and typical post-World War II-style garden apartments predominant to the north. The Takoma/Langley Crossroads is considered Maryland’s International Corridor due to this community’s highly diverse racial and ethnic population and its concentration of businesses that cater to both the multicultural neighborhood and a regional clientele. Maintaining the International Corridor aspects of the TLC is a priority of this sector plan. In addition to sustaining the local residential diversity of the area, the sector plan purpose is to maintain the TLC’s current role as a commercial center for numerous ethnic groups in the region, a market that gives Takoma/Langley Crossroads a unique economic base for the future. The unincorporated community of Langley Park was designated a community center by the 2002 Prince George’s County Approved General Plan because of the potential for a Purple Line station at the intersection of New Hampshire Avenue and University Boulevard. -
Forest Glen/Montgomery Hills Sector Plan
2019 Forest Glen/Montgomery Hills Sector Plan WORKING DRAFT 1 Abstract The Forest Glen/Montgomery Hills Sector Plan contains the text and supporting maps for a comprehensive amendment to portions of the approved and adopted 1989 Master Plan for the Communities of Kensington- Wheaton, as amended; 1996 Forest Glen Sector Plan, as amended; and 2000 North and West Silver Spring Master, as amended. It also amends The General Plan (On Wedges and Corridors) for the Physical Development of the Maryland-Washington Regional District in Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties, as amended; the 2013 Countywide Transit Corridors Functional Master Plan; the Master Plan of Highways and Transitways, as amended; and the 2018 Bicycle Master Plan. The Forest Glen/Montgomery Hills Sector Plan area extends along the Georgia Avenue corridor from the edge of downtown Silver Spring at Spring Street to Dennis Avenue just south of downtown Wheaton. This plan focuses on strategic redevelopment opportunities, improved connectivity and enhanced safety for all users. Recommendations are provided for land use, zoning, transportation, parks, trails and open space, the environment and historic resources. Master and sector plans convey land use policy for defined geographic areas and should be interpreted together with relevant countywide functional plans and county laws and regulations. Plans provide comprehensive recommendations for the use of public and private land and should be referred to by public officials and private individuals when making land use decisions. Public and private land use decisions that promote plan goals are essential to fulfilling a plan’s vision. Master and sector plans look ahead 20 years from the date of adoption, although they are intended to be revised every 10 to 15 years. -
Aspen Hill Minor Master Plan Amendment 1 Approved and Adopted │ May 2015 Map 1: Minor Amendment Area
ABSTRACT An area master plan, after approval by the District Council and adoption by The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, constitutes an amendment to The General Plan (On Wedges and Corridors) for Montgomery County. Each area master plan reflects a vision of future development that responds to the unique character of the local community within the context of a County-wide perspective. Area master plans are intended to convey land use policy for defined geographic areas and should be interpreted together with relevant County-wide functional master plans. This Minor Master Plan Amendment contains text and supporting maps for a minor amendment to the 1994 Aspen Hill Master Plan. This Plan makes recommendations for land use, zoning, design, transportation, environment, and community facilities. The minor amendment process provides an opportunity to reassess the Subject area and analyze alternative land use redevelopment, design, and zoning opportunities. The review considers existing development and reevaluates the area’s potential within the context of a changing market in the region, the intent and rationale of the 1994 Aspen Hill Master Plan, community input, and impacts to the surrounding land uses and transportation network. Master and sector plans convey land use policy for defined geographic areas and should be interpreted together with relevant County-wide functional plans and County laws and regulations. Plan recommendations provide comprehensive guidelines for the use of public and private land and should be referred to by public officials and private individuals when making land use decisions. Public and private land use decisions that promote plan goals are essential to fulfilling a plan’s vision. -

Interstate sign Roads with US numbered routes Roads with MD numbered routes. If you don’t see one of these signs on your road, you probably do NOT live on a state-maintained road.

Always expect the unexpected, pay extra close attention and drive slowly through any work zone. Whether it’s a tree trimming operation or a bridge project, be aware when orange is there: Think Orange (the color of construction equipment and signs), stay alert and slow down. Everyone is at risk.
