  • Mondawmin Station By
    Transit Hub Case Study: Mondawmin Station By: Catherine Buhler, Kathleen Cary Rose and J. Luke Byrne Executive Summary The purpose of the Transit Hub Case Study is to identify and evaluate the four locations in Baltimore that are best suited for development into the first public Transit Hubs. Transit Hubs are terminals where several types of transportation connect, including pedestrian, bicycle, rail, metro, and automobile. This case study will envision how these hubs will function, with a focus on wayfinding, clean transportation, and better connections from mode to mode. The Baltimore­Washington Electric Vehicle Initiative (BEVI) operates as an advocate for electric vehicles as well as clean, sustainable, and active transportation. Our primary focus is to facilitate discussion, education, economic development, public policy, and urban planning related to electric vehicles (EVs) in support of climate prosperity. Mondawmin station is a well traveled Metro and bus station in Baltimore City, adjacent are many schools, a shopping mall and Druid Hill Park. Through research we have identified needs and solutions to advance Mondawmin as a major transportation hub for the city. Issues and Findings: ­ The roads surrounding Mondawmin Station and Mall do not provide sufficient wayfinding and safe connections to the surrounding schools, park, and neighborhood for pedestrian and bicycle traffic ­ Bus connections are clearly displayed, but the station lacks real­time schedules, maps and wayfinding for riders that are unfamiliar with Baltimore and
