  • Transportation
    Chevy Chase Lake Sector Plan Appendix 7 Transportation 1 Sector Plan Study Area and Plan Boundary The transportation analysis for the Chevy Chase Sector Plan takes into account a larger study area and a smaller Plan boundary (see Figure 1). The study area comprises the traffic analysis zones (TAZs) within and contiguous to the Plan boundary. The definition of the study area is important as the first step in establishing the interface between the regional transportation model (Travel/3) and the Plan‐specific local area model (LAM). The Plan boundary is formally established by the Planning Board during its deliberations on the Plan’s Scope of Work. The more detailed transportation analysis (using the LAM and other analysis tools) is conducted on the area within the Plan boundary. Figure 1 Sector Plan Study Area and Plan Boundary The smaller Plan area is further divided into sub‐zones (see Figure 2). During consideration of the scope of work for the Chevy Chase Lake Sector Plan, the Planning Board agreed that two intersections (Connecticut Avenue/Beach Drive and Connecticut Avenue/Bradley Lane) would be included in the LAM analysis even though they were outside the Plan boundary. 2 Figure 2 Plan Area Sub‐zones 3 Major Transportation Facilities Connecticut Avenue (MD 185) is the major roadway serving the Plan area. Table 1 summarizes the Plan area’s master‐planned streets and highways. In addition to the roadways, the master‐ planned Purple Line Transitway and adjacent Capital Crescent Trail are located within the Georgetown Branch right of way and extend across the sector plan area.
