Technologies include cameras, traffic detectors, weather sensors, dynamic message signs, highway advisory radios, web sites and telecommunication networks. CHART is comprised of five major components: 1) Traffic and Roadway Monitoring; 2) Incident Management; 3) Traveler Information; 4) System Integration and Communication; 5) Traffic Management. JUSTIFICATION: Heavy volumes of traffic, stop-and-go commuter peaks, and lack of comprehensive information regarding current, real-time conditions on available alternatives contribute to and compound the effects of unexpected incidents. With the growth in traffic outpacing any realistic hope of expanding capacity through building new highways, or expanding existing ones, it is imperative to operate the existing highway system more efficiently through the application of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies and interagency teamwork.

Funds will be made available for highway transportation projects in designated revitalization areas. Areas will be designated by local jurisdictions, taking into account factors such as the age and number of abandoned and substandard structures, the extent of unemployment, and the redevelopment plans and strategies of the local jurisdiction. Project improvements include roadway reconstruction, lighting and drainage improvements, streetscaping and roadway improvements. JUSTIFICATION: Some of Maryland's older urban areas contain significant investments in physical infrastructure that are underutilized due to their inability to attract new investment. MDOT is joining with other State agencies to target resources for these areas with the goal of increasing their attractiveness to private investment.

    middle branch Baltimore City Department of Planning The Rowing Club was constructed in the 1980’s and is still operating Open Space and successfully today. Recreation “One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.” - William Shakespeare Sustainable open space and recreation systems protect and enhance the social, ecological and economic viability of community open spaces. These spaces are not treated as ‘isolated’ or ‘empty’ areas between properties, but rather inter-connected elements, with each serving as integral pieces of a larger system. In the Middle Branch Plan, the water and ecological systems provide the foundation of the waterfront community. The overall goals of the Middle Branch Open Space and Recreation program are to maintain a sufficient amount and distribution of open space such that diverse uses and opportunities can be created, including natural habitat areas, passive recreation areas and active recreation areas. PB Middle Branch Master Plan Open Space and Recreation 19 • Natural habitat areas will be set aside for visual enjoyment and guided education only. These areas will ‘belong’ to the birds and animals for their use. • Passive recreation areas will include spaces for sitting, picnicking and quiet contemplation. • Active recreation areas include spaces for ball playing, scull racing, fishing or other water-based recreation. All of these spaces will highlight the intrinsic attributes of the Middle Branch’s environment, minimize ecological impacts and provide economic and social benefits on a long term, sustainable basis. In the Middle Branch, open space and recreation will contribute to the quality of life, accessible to everyone. Our open space and recreation system will bring communities together through accessibility, People escaped the city and came to the quiet Middle Branch to programming and education.

  • The Patapsco Regional Greenway
    THE PATAPSCO REGIONAL GREENWAY THE PATAPSCO REGIONAL GREENWAY The Patapsco Regional Greenway (PRG) Concept Plan and Implementation Matrix identifies and prioritizes a shared-use path system along the Patapsco Valley between Sykesville and the Inner Harbor of Baltimore. This 58-mile system uses existing trails, roads and utility corridors to connect neighborhoods and destinations in Baltimore City and Baltimore, Anne Arundel, Howard and Carroll Counties. A completed greenway system will improve opportunities for transportation, recreation and economic development for communities along the route. Capitalize on the region’s existing trail system This plan identifies 58 miles of high quality shared use path facilities with 10 miles currently completed including the Waterfront Promenade, Gwynns Falls Trail, Grist Mill Trail and Freedom Park Trail. Proposed sections of the Patapsco Regional Greenway also create critical connections with the BWI Trail and B&A Trail, which extend south to Annapolis. Coordination is key to expanding the system The Patapsco Valley is home to many caretaker groups including the Patapsco Heritage Greenway, Friends of Patapsco Valley State Park and the Mid-Atlantic Off-Road Enthusiasts (MORE). These organizations contribute significantly to the maintenance and enhancement of existing greenway trails . Establishing a steering committee to guide the greenway’s expansion will help leverage existing support and coordinate various multijurisdictional efforts. For example, engaging volunteer labor can help to build 6 miles of the recommended natural surface trails. Plan ahead for improvements KEY STATISTICS To efficiently move toward completion of the greenway, complex projects, such as the shared-use path bridge from Cherry Hill to COMMUNITIES SERVED GREENWAY SYSTEM the Patapsco Light Rail station, must be incorporated into capital improvement programs.

  • Turning Baltimore's Trails Into a Network Could Bring Charm City a Near-Term
    Jones Falls Trail in Baltimore by charmcity123 licensed under Creative Commons. The Baltimore Greenways Trail Network is a relatively new idea. Other projects working their way through Maryland’s transportation pipeline, including the Purple Line, the cancelled Baltimore Red Line, the Corridor Cities Transitway, and the Southern Maryland Rapid Transit Project, each 1 of 10 1/2/2021, 12:05 PM date back decades. But the Baltimore Greenway, a proposed 35-mile network of urban trails ringing almost the entirety of Baltimore City, only dates back four or five years — Rails-to-Trails Conservancy’s earliest planning meetings for the project launched toward the end of 2015. But despite its newness, the trail network, spearheaded by a coalition with more than 40 stakeholder members, has a key advantage: it’s already almost done. It would only take 10 more miles of trails — about $28 million — to complete the 35-mile network, which would link up to 75 neighborhoods and could come with millions of dollars in economic and social benefits. A new report by consulting firm Ernst & Young, commissioned by the Greater Washington Partnership (GWP), argues that the Baltimore Greenways Trail Network has the potential to not only bring countless benefits to the city, but also to do so sooner than any major transit project proposed in Central Maryland. The Greenway would be quick to complete because the concept makes use of already existing trails, including: The Gwynns Falls Trail, which originates in Baltimore’s largest park, Leakin Park, and has run about 15 miles along the Gwynns Falls river since 1998; The Jones Falls Trail, a 9-mile path, under various bits of construction since 1999, which runs north-south alongside Baltimore’s Jones Falls River from the Mt.

    Maryland Land Preservation and Recreation Plan 2014-2018 Dear Citizens: Our land is the foundation of our economic and social prosperity, rich in productive forests and farms, vital wildlife habitat, opportunities for recreation and tourism, culture and history. As our State grows and changes, it is important to continually evaluate our mission and investments for the benefit of Maryland and its citizens. As champion of public land conservation and outdoor recreation, DNR is pleased to present the Land Preservation and Recreation Plan for 2014-2018 — a comprehensive, statewide plan that will guide our efforts to conserve open space and enhance outdoor resources on State lands for the next five years. Outlining clear goals and measurable action items, the Plan will enhance coordination among local, County and State planners; promote the benefits of outdoor recreation and natural resources; improve access to land and water-based recreation for every Marylander; and connect public trails and lands to the places where people work, live and play. This Plan was developed in cooperation with State, County and local officials, stakeholders and citizens in accordance with the U.S. Department of Interior, Land and Water Conservation Fund guidelines. By helping direct preservation to priority lands and fostering a greater connection to the outdoors, it supports the benefits of health and recreation, economic vitality and environmental sustainability for all citizens.
