ABSTRACT DATE: March 2021 TITLE: City of College Park Complete and Green Streets Implementation Plan: 30 Percent Design for Five Street Segments AUTHOR: The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission, Prince George’s County Planning Department SUBJECT: Complete and Green Street Reconstruction Projects SOURCE OF COPIES: The Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission 14741 Governor Oden Bowie Drive Upper Marlboro, MD 20772 NUMBER OF PAGES: 95 The project was funded through the Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Communities (PAMC) program administered by the Prince George’s County Planning Department. In 2016, the City of College Park adopted a Complete and Green Streets Policy. This policy seeks to provide immediate and long‐term benefits for community residents by incorporating safe multimodal transportation options throughout the city by reconstructing streets to incorporate complete and green principles. These principles include sidewalks, bicycle routes, stormwater best management (low-impact development) practices, and street trees. In 2019, the city applied for and was awarded (by the Prince George’s County Planning Board) planning assistance to implement the city’s 2016 policy using an M-NCPPC-funded consultant. The consultant assessed the feasibility of implementing complete and green streets infrastructure on previously identified priority street segments. The 30 percent designs and cost estimates developed in this project will be used to gather community consensus through outreach, apply for grants, develop final designs, and advance projects to construction. This report describes the process of selecting the prioritized street segments and summarizes the 30 percent designs and cost estimates.

SECTION 1 BACKGROUND AND PROJECT GOALS
INTRODUCTION In 2016, the City of College Park adopted a Complete and Green Streets Policy (See Appendix F.). This policy seeks to provide immediate and long‐term benefits for community residents by incorporating safe multimodal transportation options throughout the city. This can be accomplished by reconstructing streets to incorporate complete and green principles such as sidewalks, bicycle routes, low impact development (LID)stormwater best management practices and street trees. Design and construction of such measures are already underway on Berwyn Road, Osage Trail, 49th Avenue, and the Beechwood Road Bridge. Further improvements are planned for Hollywood and Edmonston Roads. When the reconstructions are complete, residents will start to enjoy the policy’s benefits. The city’s policy compliments the official complete and green streets policy for Prince George’s County, established in 2012 by Council Bill CB-83-2012. This bill requires that all County-financed and approved road projects include accommodations for all modes of transportation. It also included a provision that all Countyfunded projects must meet complete streets standards unless they are found to be cost prohibitive.1 The purpose of this report is to advance the goals and priorities outlined in the 2016 policy by prioritizing further street segments for reconstruction and providing 30 percent plans and cost estimates. Products summarized in this report will be used to gather community consensus through outreach, apply for grants, develop final designs, and advance projects to construction.

ABOUT STORMWATER MANAGEMENT Stormwater runoff is generated when precipitation from rain and snow events flows over land or impervious surfaces and does not percolate into the ground. As the runoff flows over these surfaces such as paved streets, parking lots, and building rooftops, it accumulates debris, chemicals, sediment, or other pollutants that harm County streams and waterways if the runoff is not treated. While centralized stormwater retention ponds and detention facilities have been the dominant approach to addressing the quality and quantity of runoff, updates to the County’s stormwater regulations now reflect a more comprehensive and smaller-scale approach to stormwater management practices, referred to commonly as LID. LID relies on small-scale stormwater management practices, nonstructural techniques, and better site planning to mimic natural hydrologic runoff characteristics and minimize the impact of land development on water resources. Examples of LID include rain gardens, landscape ( filter) strips, and conservation landscaping with native plants. —Adapted from the 2014 Plan Prince George’s 2035 Approved General Plan, page 164.

PROJECT GOALS Many City of College Park streets are the product of car-centric planning and lack pedestrian and bicycle amenities. This project seeks to: • Assess the feasibility of implementing complete and green street principles. • Create a safe and continuous network of bicycle and pedestrian‐friendly streets. • Provide trees and greener streets in context‐sensitive designs. • Advance neighborhood sidewalk equability. • Implement projects that advance County and state stormwater management goals where possible. • Identify streetscape enhancements at key intersections where community activities may be concentrated and safely account for all users of the public right‐of‐way.
By implementing these objectives, this project aims to improve safety, connect neighborhoods with community attractions, and enhance the public realm. Improvements are suggested based on field observations, data analysis, construction costs, and College Park City Council direction. The project team, including the City of College Park Planning Department, the Prince George’s County Planning Department, College Park City Council, and A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc., collaborated to identify specific street segments for conceptual design and inclusion in the city’s Five‐Year Capital Improvement Program. This project will help advance consensus by providing implementation details and forecasting construction costs.
This project builds upon the findings and recommendations from the 2014 Plan Prince George’s 2035 Approved General Plan; the 2017 Prince George’s County Urban Street Design Standards; 2018 City of College Park Department of Engineering maps, and the 2016 City of College Park Complete Streets Policy and Implementation Plan and its corresponding street priority matrix.

SECTION 2 REVIEW OF EXISTING CONDITIONS AND EVALUATION OF STREET SEGMENTS FOR FURTHER ANALYSIS
EXISTING CONDITIONS ANALYSIS The City of College Park Planning Department used geographic information system mapping technology to target street segments for complete and green reconstruction. The maps that follow demonstrate the presence and absence of features such as sidewalks, trails, and other transportation infrastructure. Gaps in non-vehicular transportation options are revealed, allowing pedestrian and bicycle improvements for certain neighborhoods to be prioritized.
CONNECTIVITY ROUTES AND SIDEWALKS (MAP RIGHT) The primary vehicular connector routes for each neighborhood are shown in blue. Trails (green) are present, but mostly in public park areas. Sidewalks (red) are clustered in certain neighborhoods.

EXISTING SIDEWALKS (MAP RIGHT)
Existing sidewalks are common in the northern and southern extents of the city. Sidewalks increase walkability, reduce reliance on automobiles, and increase pedestrian safety. Areas without sidewalks miss out on these benefits. The many sidewalks within the University of Maryland campus are not shown as they are not City of College Park sidewalks.

SIDEWALK COVERAGE The data shown on the prior pages include the length of each street and sidewalk. By combining these data with College Park’s neighborhood association boundaries, a better understanding is obtained of how walkable a particular part of the city is, and how neighborhoods can be compared in terms of sidewalk coverage. The oldest neighborhoods of Lakeland and Old Town already have greater than 90 percent sidewalk coverage. Both denser residential areas (such as North College Park and Berwyn) and less dense residential areas (such as West College Park, College Park Estates, and Yarrow) that currently have little to no sidewalk coverage are recommended to be prioritized for reconstruction. This prioritization should continue until equitable sidewalk coverage is achieved throughout the city.
SIDEWALK COVERAGE BY SUBDIVISION When the North College Park Citizen’s Association sidewalk coverage is broken down by subdivision, the disparity becomes more apparent than the 45-percent average indicates.

COMPLETE LIST OF CITY STREETS WITH SIDEWALKS NEIGHBORHOOD SIDEWALK PERCENTAGE COVERAGE The presence of a sidewalk, (and the neighborhood sidewalk percentage) was determined using the maps on the prior pages. Examination of aerial photographs research was also used to verify the presence of sidewalks. Streets that are owned or maintained by MDOT SHA (Maryland Department of Transportation State Highways Administration) or DPW&T (Prince George’s County Department of Public Works and Transportation) are excluded from this study. Examples of state roads within city limits include MD 193 (University Boulevard/ Greenbelt Road) and US 1 (Baltimore Avenue). Examples of County roads within city limits include Cherry Hill Road, Cherrywood Lane, Metzerott Road, Rhode Island Avenue and Campus Drive.

PRIOR BASELINE ANALYSIS, STREET SEGMENT RECONSTRUCTION STUDIES AND IMPLEMENTATION EFFORTS PRELIMINARY PRIORITY STREETS IDENTIFIED BY CITY STAFF (AUGUST 2017) In 2017, the city analyzed 98 street segments spread across 25 city streets. Each segment was scored by the presence or absence of obstacles and opportunities and then ranked to assess the feasibility and necessity for complete and green reconstruction. The list focused on city-owned neighborhood connector streets that link to US 1 (Baltimore Avenue), Rhode Island Avenue, or other major destinations. See Appendix A for the city’s 2017 matrix that served as a starting point for this project. PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF STREETS WITHOUT SIDEWALKS A preliminary analysis of all city streets that do not have sidewalks was undertaken by A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc. (AMT) following the drafting of the city’s initial sidewalk concepts. Streets that were previously identified as candidates for reconstruction in the city’s capital improvement plan (CIP), by the city engineer, or within the city’s draft matrix received additional consideration for this analysis. These streets were also evaluated for connectivity improvements. Streets where a new sidewalk would connect to existing circulation networks were favored (see Appendix B). City planning department staff provided comment on AMT’s initial shortlist of city streets and critique of the city’s draft matrix (see Appendix C). Based on their knowledge of the city, prior resident comment, and the current CIP, the city recommended that certain streets should be either added or removed from the list for further consideration (see Appendix D). CITY DRAFT CONCEPTS FOR STREET SEGMENT SIDEWALK INSTALLATION After completion of the draft matrix, the city studied the potential for new sidewalks on the following street segments: • Hollywood Road: As part of a separate project, the city is currently developing 30 percent sidewalk design plans for Hollywood Road between Rhode Island Avenue and US 1 (Baltimore Avenue). A new sidewalk in this residential area would provide improved walkability to the Hollywood Park playground, North College Park Post Office and the Rhode Island Avenue corridor. The estimated cost for the Hollywood Road sidewalk project is $486,470. • DePauw Place: The city prepared a sketch for this street due to its wide right-of-way and complete lack of sidewalks in the neighborhood. In areas with mature trees, flexible porous pavement is recommended to reduce impacts to roots. A new sidewalk would present the opportunity to connect to other potential future projects, including a sidewalk on St. Andrews Place and a planned M-NCPPC hard-surface trail at the east end of DePauw Place. • St. Andrews Place and Metzerott Road: The city and County are coordinating on the addition of a sidewalk along the north side of Metzerott Road and the east side of city-owned St. Andrews Place (between Metzerott Road and Duke Street). This will provide a safe and accessible route to the bus stops on County-owned Metzerott Road. • Bowdoin Avenue: Many pedestrians currently use the Bowdoin Avenue roadway because there are no sidewalks. The narrow right-of-way, hedgerows, and utility poles are significant challenges, but a new sidewalk in this location would provide a critical north-south pedestrian connection from Erskine Road to the College Park MARC and WMATA stations.

SECTION 3 TWELVE STREET SEGMENTS PRIORITIZED FOR RECONSTRUCTION
PRELIMINARY STREET-SEGMENT PRIORITIZATION MATRIX Following meetings with city staff, research, and site visits, the city’s 2017 matrix (see Appendix A) was revised in two significant ways: first, A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc., expanded the list of streets based on findings shown in Appendices B and D to include additional potential street segments; second, the matrix was expanded to include additional criteria that can be objectively assessed, such as potential impacts to trees, stormwater LID potential and connectivity to existing features ( for example, public parks, facilities, or transportation networks). As with the 2017 matrix, this preliminary matrix consolidates information on each street segment’s right-of-way, topography, parking, vegetation and utilities. Based on the cumulative score relative to the other street segments in the matrix, preliminary recommendations are provided based on the above-referenced criteria. The street segments are ranked high to low by their matrix score.

Due the the width of the street, there is considerable potential for a complete street with SWM bump‐outs, maintaining the parallel parking, protecting mature trees, avoiding utilities, and adding a sidewalk on the NW side (and a connection to a potential sidewalk on Edmonston). If too challenging, could end the new complete street/sidewalks at Bryn Mawr Road.
1. A proposed hard-surface, shared-use trail is planned to link with the DePauw Place street centerline. (Source: PGAtlas) 2. City's concept proposes a sidewalk on each side. There are "desire paths" on each side of guardrail currently. 3. Recommend sidewalk starting on the north side of the DePauw Place/St. Andrews Place intersection because utility poles are on the south side of DePauw Place. Continue to intersection with Limestone Place. 4. After Limestone Place, major trees will complicate continuing to the dead end. Bumpouts may be needed but will take away parallel parking. If ROW is wide enough, use an "on‐grade" flexible porous/permeable sidewalk section in tree CRZs.
1. City's concept at Metzerott Road/St. Andrews Place is on the north side of Metzerott Road/east side of St. Andrews Place. Metzerott Road (county road) may receive a future sidewalk but is outside scope of work for this project. Currently there is a "desire path" on the east corner of St. Andrews Place/Metzerott Road. 2. Proposed sidewalk begins on north side of Duke Street. 3. Proposed sidewalk on east side of St. Andrews Place to De Pauw Place corner. This is the same side recommended by the City's initial matrix.

TWELVE TARGETED AND PRIORITIZED STREET SEGMENTS BASED ON THE PRELIMINARY MATRIX When mapped, it can bee seen that the twelve prioritized street segments included in the preliminary matrix are clustered in neighborhoods with the fewest sidewalks, as discussed in Section 2. The six highest-ranked street segments on the preliminary matrix (St. Andrews Place, DePauw Place, Wellesley Drive, Cherokee Street, Edmonston Road and 48th Place) were initially recommended for 30 percent design. These six street segments were presented to the College Park City Council at their February 18, 2020 hearing (see Section 4).

On February 18, 2020, city planning department staff and AMT presented the project’s purpose, funding, preliminary findings and scope to the College Park City Council. The goal of the presentation was to reach consensus between the council, mayor and planning department on which street segments to advance to the next project phase. The map below locates the segments, ranked from highest to lowest matrix score. The city planning department staff and AMT recommended that streets ranked 1-5 (or 6 in lieu of 5) advance to the next phase of 30-percent plan drawings, cost estimates, an updated matrix and a draft 5-year capital improvement plan. The following pages summarize the content of the presentation, and the challenges and opportunities associated with each of the six highest-ranked street segments.

ST. ANDREWS PLACE
PROPOSED SIDEWALK: EAST SIDE, DUKE STREET TO DE PAUW PLACE
St. Andrews Place is constructed as a boulevard with a raised-curb landscaped median from Metzerott Road to approximately 200 feet north of Duke Street. On-street parking is present; however, because of the wide right-of-way, a new sidewalk would not significantly impact its location or availability. Storm drains along the eastern curb line present an opportunity for stormwater management to be integrated into the existing system. In addition, there are several established trees and vegetation on the east side near the 90- and 9100 block of St. Andrews Place. This vegetation will need to be protected to the maximum extent practicable during implementation, including possibly installing on-grade porous flexible pavement in critical root zones, as well as bump-outs into the roadway. Potential challenges to implementation: Overhead electric and telecommunication lines hang from utility poles on the west side of St. Andrews Place. There is also a pole/guy wire outside 9019 St. Andrews Place that should be avoided (or relocated if necessary). A fire hydrant is also located on the west side. Opportunities: A new sidewalk on St. Andrews Place from Duke Street to De Pauw Place could connect to existing crosswalks at these intersections. A new sidewalk on the east side would also provide safe access to the College Park Woods Neighborhood Park, and could connect to a future city or County sidewalk on Metzerott Road and St. Andrews Place running to Duke Street (see the city ‘s draft concept in Section 2).
2
DE PAUW PLACE
PROPOSED SIDEWALK: NORTH SIDE, FROM ST. ANDREWS PLACE
A new sidewalk would be unlikely to significantly affect the location or availability of on-street parking. There are several established trees outside 3612 and 3616 DePauw Place and 9017 and 9018 Gettysburg Lane. A planting bed is present at 9122 Gettysburg Lane. This vegetation will need to be protected to the maximum extent practicable during implementation, including possibly installing on-grade porous flexible pavement in critical root zones, as well as bumpouts into the roadway. Potential challenges to implementation: Overhead electric and telecommunication lines hang from utility poles on the south side of DePauw Place directly behind the curb and gutter. Although the south side has a shallower slope behind the curb than does the north side, due to the presence of these utilities it is recommended to locate the sidewalk on the north side. The north side may require a short retaining wall or curb in some areas. Opportunities: A new DePauw Place sidewalk could connect to the proposed St. Andrews Place sidewalk project and an M-NCPPC planned hard-surface shared-use trail connecting at the DePauw Place dead end.

WELLESLEY DRIVE
PROPOSED SIDEWALK: NORTHEAST SIDE, EDMONSTON ROAD TO SWEETBRIAR DRIVE
Due to the wide right-of-way and ample asphalt surface, Wellesley Drive has promising potential for a complete street reconstruction that includes LID bump-outs, maintains parallel parking on each side of the street, protects mature trees, avoids utilities, and adds a sidewalk on at least the northeast side, if not the southwest. Steep slopes north of Bryn Mawr Road may limit the project north of this cross street. Potential challenges to implementation: Wellesley Drive includes several mature trees on the southwest side of the street, notably at 7511 Wellesley Drive where a bump-out is recommended. Mature trees are also present on the north side between Bryn Mawr Road and Sweetbriar Drive. This vegetation will need to be protected to the maximum extent practicable during implementation, including possibly installing on-grade porous flexible pavement in critical root zones, as well as bump-outs into the roadway. Opportunities: A new sidewalk on Wellesley Drive would present opportunities to connect to the proposed sidewalk on Edmonston Road and offers a safe pedestrian connection to bus stops there.
5
EDMONSTON ROAD
PROPOSED SIDEWALK: WEST SIDE, OLD CALVERT ROAD TO BRYN MAWR ROAD
Edmonston Road is a long, curvilinear street east of the Yarrow and College Park Estates neighborhoods. Parallel parking is present on the west side of Edmonston Road between Bryn Mawr Road and Wellesley Drive. The west side of the road also includes several mature trees ( for example, near 7308-7314 Edmonston Road) and a planting bed (at 7302 Edmonston Road) that would necessitate special construction techniques to protect the vegetation to the maximum extent practicable. At some of the cross streets, such as Knoxville Drive, the wide intersection can be reduced by bumping out the curb, creating a shorter and safer new crosswalk and a more pedestrian-friendly entrance to the neighborhood. Potential challenges to implementation: On the west side, steep slopes near 7314 Edmonston Road could require a retaining wall, and the brick entrance features need to be preserved at the Radcliffe Drive intersection. Bump-outs may be required to do so. The Marenka House (Historic Site 66-076) at 7300 Radcliffe Road is protected by the County Historic Preservation Ordinance (Subtitle 29) and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Installation of a sidewalk may require coordination with the Prince George’s County Historic Preservation Commission. On the east side, utility poles are installed near the roadway. The east side also has a steep bank that will require significant brush clearing, filling, and possibly walls to retain the fill required by a sidewalk. For these reasons, sidewalk installation is recommended for the west side, except between Bryn Mawr Road and Wellesley Drive, where the sidewalk could cross to the east side to avoid impacts to parallel parking. A sidewalk on the west side likely reduces the amount of pedestrian crossings from the neighborhood to the east side of Edmonston Road. Although the posted speed limit is 25 miles per hour, it was observed that vehicles frequently exceed that. Currently, pedestrians typically prefer the west side because the east side slope is less comfortable for walking. Crosswalks and signage are still required on the east side wherever a bus stop is present. The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission is scheduled to replace the Edmonston Road water main. Contract BT6433A18 began in Spring 2020 and is scheduled to conclude by June 2021. Roadway pavement restoration will occur in Summer 2022. Opportunities: A new sidewalk on Edmonston Road could connect to other non-vehicular circulation systems, including the potential Wellesley Drive sidewalk project, and a new roadway project along Old Calvert Road (stretching from Edmonston Road to Campus Drive). The city council recommended the following condition to (pending) DSP-18047: “Amend the BPIS to eliminate the bus shelter improvement and instead reflect 5.b. (3) of the Preliminary Plan resolution (PGCPB No. 20-09, File No. 4-18027), ‘Construct a sidewalk from the Campus Drive/Riverside Avenue intersection on the west side of Riverside Avenue to Old Calvert Road.’”

CHEROKEE STREET
PROPOSED SIDEWALK: NORTH SIDE, 48TH PLACE TO RHODE ISLAND AVENUE
Although not a thoroughfare, Cherokee Street provides a critical link between US 1 (Baltimore Avenue)and Rhode Island Avenue. The street will not lend itself to further narrowing, so the sidewalk should be made to fit into the rightof-way without encroaching into the roadway or reducing the on-street parking. Storm drains exist, but new bump-outs or stormwater low-impact development are not practical due to the narrow street width. Cherokee Street includes several established trees and vegetation, including an approximately 20-inch Zelkova (4805 Cherokee Street) and an approximately 18-inch Bradford pear (9104 Rhode Island Avenue). However, there are higher-quality trees on the south side, which should eliminate that side from consideration for sidewalk installation. Potential challenges to implementation: Utility poles carrying electric and telecommunication lines, guardrails, and signage are located on the north side. Signage can be moved, but the proposed sidewalk needs to avoid the utility poles as they would be expensive to relocate. Opportunities: A new sidewalk on Cherokee Street would provide a pedestrian connection to the US 1 (Baltimore Avenue) and Rhode Island Avenue corridors. This project could also connect (via a crosswalk) to a sidewalk that terminates at 48th Place, recently installed as part of the Metropolitan at College Park development (4701-4729 Cherokee Street).
6
48TH PLACE
PROPOSED SIDEWALK: 47TH PLACE TO DELAWARE STREET (OR AT LEAST TO INDIAN LANE OR FOX STREET)
This segment of 48th Place is hilly and residential in character. Between 47th Place and Muskogee Street, a sidewalk is recommended for installation on the south side. This would take advantage of the existing sidewalks and crosswalks between Muskogee and Lackawanna Streets. Care should be taken to ensure that changes to the location or reduction in the amount of on-street parking are minimized. Unless the sidewalk width is reduced to three or four feet, several small trees between 9714 and 9718 48th Place may need to be removed. There are mature trees between Indian Lane and Delaware Street, complicating the potential for a sidewalk at this location. Potential challenges to implementation: A garage at 4813 Hollywood Road may encroach into the right-of-way, and there are steep slopes near 47th Place. South of Indian Lane, this project may prove not as cost-effective as other options because of the need for mid-block crossings and short retaining walls. However, between 47th Place and Indian Lane, this project is feasible and relatively cost-effective. Opportunities: A new sidewalk on 48th Place would connect fragments of existing sidewalks (at the corner of 47th and 48th Places; at the corner of 48th Place and Muskogee Street; at 48th Place between Hollywood Road and Iroquois Street, and at 48th Place between Muskogee and Lackawanna Streets) with a continuous pedestrian route that connects them to existing crosswalks. If the sidewalk is extended to Indian Lane, an improved pedestrian route would be provided to the Indian Lane bus stops and the City of College Park Department of Public Works (located at the south end of Indian lane at 9217 51st Avenue).

COLLEGE PARK CITY COUNCIL WORKSESSION SELECTION OF FINAL FIVE STREET SEGMENTS FOR 30 PERCENT DESIGN City of College Park Planning Department staff and A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc., (AMT) presented their recommended street segments to the mayor and city council on February 18, 2020. The mayor and council directed AMT and staff to proceed with developing 30 percent plans with corresponding matrix updates, cost estimates and CIP recommendations for the following street segments: St. Andrews Place, Cherokee Street, Edmonston Road, 52nd Avenue, and Bowdoin Avenue. (See Appendix C for complete meeting minutes.)

CITY OF COLLEGE PARK COMPLETE AND GREEN STREETS IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
GENERAL COMMENTS • Existing traffic volumes should factor into the decision-making process for street selection • Include a safety score of each street (either current safety or potential safety improvements) • Break down North College Park into neighborhoods [subdivisions] • Prioritize streets near Metro stations and commercial districts • Present these recommendations to nearby residents for their comments • Consider how future development will impact certain streets • After development of 30 percent plans, city staff will begin community outreach to obtain consensus
STREET-SEGMENT SPECIFIC COMMENTS Edmonston Road: Based on prior community comments, the new sidewalk should be located on the east side of the road, not the west side. City planning staff and AMT advocated for the new sidewalk to be on the west side for several reasons, including but not limited to: proximity to residences (the College Park Estates and Yarrow neighborhoods are west of Edmonston Road); that it is safer (pedestrians do not need to cross Edmonston Road to access the sidewalk); and the presence of a steep slope on east side of Edmonston Road. These factors would make a future sidewalk on the west side better-used, and a better capital investment. However, the east side was selected for 30 percent design due to the potential loss of parallel parking and prior resident comments. Wellesley Drive: Located near Edmonston Road, Wellesley Drive was recommended for reconstruction due to its wide right-of-way (vehicles are prioritized over pedestrians) and its potential to be transformed into a complete street. However, councilmembers noted other city streets would be better served by a new sidewalk ( for example, Bowdoin Avenue). DePauw Place: Despite the potential for connection to a planned M-NCPPC trail at the end of DePauw Place, and a connection to the recommended sidewalk on St. Andrews Place, a nearby resident previously advocated against adding a sidewalk because of the existing trees that might have to be removed. Bowdoin Avenue: Although narrow, it is a major pedestrian link to WMATA and heavily used; therefore, it should be included.

SECTION 5 FINAL FIVE CITY STREET SEGMENTS FOR 30 PERCENT DESIGN: PLANS, FIVE-YEAR CIP AND UPDATED MATRIX
30 PERCENT PLANS AND COST ESTIMATES FOR COMPLETE AND GREEN STREET RECONSTRUCTION Section 5 shows a portion of each 30-percent-design street segment with its corresponding matrix row and CIP cost estimate. The matrix was finalized based on action by the mayor and city council of College Park: • Points awarded for a potential ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) connection to public transportation (such as WMATA station, MARC station, or city/county bus stop) were separated into their own column. The amount for a connection to such public transit network was increased from .5 to 1 point. • Streets with any connection to a commercial area received 1 point. • Sidewalks on streets that pedestrians perceived to be safe are more likely to be used. A column was added for an assessment of perceived safety. This subjective scoring of 0, .5, or 1 point is based on site lines, posted speed limits versus typical driving speeds, roadway width (vehicles travel slowly on narrow roads, faster on wider ones) and the presence of parallel parking (parked cars provide a buffer between pedestrians and moving vehicles). Additional notes from the February 18, 2020 City Council hearing: • Traffic counting is outside the scope of this project, but could be undertaken during future funding, planning or design phases. However, the addition of the aforementioned safety column is similar to the scoring that would be achieved by adding a traffic-counting column. • Neighborhoods for each of the twelve street segments are listed in the matrix. • City of College Park Planning Department staff will undertake community and stakeholder outreach after this project is completed. • The impact of future development was taken into consideration on St. Andrews Place, DePauw Place, and Cherokee Street. The additional criteria did not significantly change the scoring of the highest-ranked street segments; however, with the heightened emphasis on connections to public transit options, Bowdoin Avenue now outranks 48th Place. Although only the five street segments agreed upon at the city council hearing are advanced to the 30 percent design level, it is recommended that the city planning department continue to refer to the final matrix for future complete street reconstruction efforts and planning considerations. The complete set of 30 percent Plans is available by contacting the City of College Park Planning Department; the complete final matrix is included in Appendix E. The full 30 percent construction plan set includes a project cover sheet with standard notes, demolition plans, proposed site plans, standard details and typical sections. The 30 percent drawings also include information on sidewalks, tree planting, crosswalks, ADA-compliant ramps, curbs and gutters, driveway crossings, bump-outs, stormwater management (where appropriate), header curbs, short retaining walls, and planting areas. The plans also indicate preliminary tree protection measures and existing vegetation to be preserved, relocated or removed.

1. If selected as a project, recommend sidewalk is on west side of road since neighborhood is on west side. West side is a safer option and more likely to be used than the east side. 2. Since bus stops are on both sides of road, recommend cross‐walks and signage to ADA‐ accessible bus pads on east side of Edmonston Road. (Currently no ADA accessible bus pads or shelters.)

EDMONSTON ROAD - SHEET C505 (PROPOSED) A proposed five-foot sidewalk is offset typically four feet from the back of curb when space permits. The existing roadway includes large curb radii, which create an unnecessarily wide P intersection. The 30 percent design reduces the curb radii, which slows vehicle traffic, offers clearance for an ADA sidewalk and creates space for native plant areas.

PARALLEL PARKING: Parallel parking west side between Bryn Mawr Road and Wellesley Drive. Possible minor impacts to existing parking by sidewalk designs. OBSTACLES: Wall will be needed at 7314 Edmonston Road. "Yarrow" entrance brick walls will need to be preserved at Radcliffe Drive intersection. Possibly a minor bump‐out needed. Utility poles primarily on east side. VEG/TREES: Planting bed at 7302 Edmonston Road. Large trees at 7308‐7314 Edmonston Road but most impacts can be avoided. Vegetation gets denser north of Wellesley Drive. INTERSECTING STREET: Narrow intersection width at Knoxville Drive by bumping out curb. This will reduce proposed crosswalk length. The Marenka House (Historc Site 66‐076) at 7300 Radcliffe Road is protected by the County Historic Preservation Ordinance (Subtitle 29) and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Installation of a sidewalk may require coordination with the Prince George's County Historic Preservation Commission. POINTS ARE FOR THE WEST SIDE OF EDMONSTON ROAD.

PARALLEL PARKING: Present. Possible minor impacts to existing parking by sidewalk designs. OBSTACLES: Between Narragansett Parkway and Kenesaw Street, fewer obstructions on west side of 52nd Avenue. Bump‐ outs may still be necessary, however. Between Kenesaw Street and Huron Street, the west side has steep embankments, stairs and retaining walls; the east side has steep banks, chain link fences, signage, and utility poles. VEG/TREES: (1) ~10 inch Zelkova outside 9608 52nd Avenue and (1) ~15 inch maple outside 9604 52nd Avenue. POSSIBLE CONNECTIONS TO EXISTING: existing sidewalks on each side of 52nd Avenue north of Narragansett Parkway. Could tie into either side.

D 1. Between Narragansett Parkway and Kenesaw Street, a sidewalk is feasible on west side 52nd Avenue, as are SWM bump‐outs where needed/appropriate. This section of the street was one of the highest rated streets in the City's 2017 matrix. 2. Kenesaw Street to Narrangansett Parkway is feasible given wide ROW; however, it only lengthens the existing sidewalk network by 1 block. 3. South of Kenesaw Street is not cost effective, for several reasons, including: the obstacles listed at left and the narrow right of way that is essentially at the back of existing curb. Adding a sidewalk likely requires a combination of 1) removing roadway width and parallel parking, 2) expanding the right‐of‐way and taking private property, 3) retaining walls and short curbs to comport to topographical challenges, 4) relocations of fences, signage, etc.) and rebulding of driveways and front walkways. Both the east and west sides of 52nd Avenue (between Kenesaw Street and Huron Street) were poorly rated in terms of their potential for a "complete streets treatment" in the City's 2017 matrix. Other street segments are better served with CIP design/construction funding.

LOD
PARALLEL PARKING: Present. Possible minor impacts to existing parking by sidewalk designs. OBSTACLES: Utility poles and tracks on east side make a sidewalk there a challenge without bumping out the curb line. Fence very near back of curb at 4817 Guilford Road, 7201 Bowdoin Avenue (and stairs), established trees at 7204 Bowdoin Avenue. Narrow ROW and obstacles may make this unfeasible. VEG/TREES: Established shrub beds on west side, especially at 7004 Bowdoin Avenue. Low quality hedgerow trees are present on the east side. POINTS ARE FOR THE EAST SIDE OF BOWDOIN AVENUE.

1. Not cost effective. Too expensive to reconstruct the area to provide space for sidewalk. Will involve major coordination with homeowners, who will not be happy with removed trees/shrub beds and relocated fences/steps. 2. City's concept includes a sidewalk on the east side. This is more feasible than west side, however, the east side will involve removal of portions of the hedgerow and avoidance/relocation of utility poles. Bumping out the curb to narrow an already narrow street is likely needed.

FIVE-YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PROPOSAL FOR EACH OF THE FIVE STREET SEGMENTS
Construction cost estimates were prepared for the five priority street segment selections to be included as part of the city’s five-year CIP. As shown on the previous pages, the cost estimates comprised six construction divisions, including: General, Existing Conditions, Earthwork, Exterior Improvements, Utilities, and Transportation. The five-year CIP includes fiscal year projections from FY 2022–FY 2026. The funding sources shown are similar to those in the City of College Park’s Adopted Operating Budgets and CIP For Fiscal Year 2020. These funding sources were selected based upon their relevance to the five priority street-segment projects. A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc., recommends funding to be applied for include Safe Routes To School (SRTS) and Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). SRTS is a federally-funded reimbursement program administered by the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highways Administration (MDOT SHA) that supports infrastructure and non-infrastructure activities and encourages children in grades K-8 to walk or bike to school. The CDBG is administered by the Prince George’s County Department of Housing and Community Development, which receives approximately $4.5 million annually from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to benefit low- to moderate-income families.

This could connect to the new sidewalk recommended by the city on Huron Street (51st Avenue to 52nd Avenue) and another potential new sidewalk on Iroquois Street (see below).
Provides access to the Boys and Girls Club as well as Public Works Department.
Add new sidewalk, at least between Muskogee Street and Lackawanna Street. Enhances access to public library.
Adding a new sidewalk between 47th Place/48th Place intersection southward to Delaware Street provides a much needed north-south walkability improvement in North College Park. Also provides access to Hollywood Playground. If needed, this proposed segment could be shortened to extend from the existing sidewalk at Lackawanna Street southward to Indian Lane or Fox Street.
This would help. There is already a sidewalk on Bowdoin Avenue between Harvard Road and Calvert Road.
Missing gap in the Old Town sidewalk infrastructure. Several obstacles. Will be a challenge. But would "close the loop" and also provide access to Old Town Playground.

Meeting Date:
September 5, 2019
Meeting Location:
4500 Know Road, College Park, MD
Meeting Attendees:
City: Terry Schum (Director - Planning), Steve Halpern (City Engineer), Brenda Alexander (DPW Asst. Director), Katie Hart (Planner) M-NCPPC: Adam Dodgshon (Project Manager), Christina Hartsfield (Area Planner) AMT: Jack Goode (Project Manager), Matt Weir (Landscape Architect)
AMT met with the City of College Park (City) and M-NCPPC staff for introductions/roles and to discuss administrative items, project goals, project scope, stakeholders, and next steps. Following the meeting, attendees walked a couple blocks around City Hall to discuss common streetscape issues throughout the city.
Communication Protocol o Adam D. will be the main point-of-contact for M-NCPPC. Keep him in the loop about any scope changes, schedule, starting a new task, major milestones, billing, etc. o AMT to coordinate with City on “day-to-day” technical items. Final deliverables o Report: InDesign and PDF o Drawings: .DWG and GIS shapefiles Billing format o Also show % complete for each task. o Refer to “MNCPPC Contractual Billing Procedures for Consultants” for more information. Matrix o Prepared by City Staff, including Terry, Steve and Brenda. o The list focuses on neighborhood connector streets linking to Route 1, Rhode Island Avenue, or other major destinations. o City will share with AMT the City’s Existing Conditions and Connectivity Routes map, dated 10/9/2018, which was the genesis of the matrix. Katie Hart emailed a pdf version on 9/5/19. Project Scope o AMT to study destinations and connection points and walkability to/from. o AMT to study available plans (links included in SOW). County also just produced The Transportation Action Guide for Urban Communities – “Implementation Strategies Playbook” (March 2019).

City’s goal, and final product of this contract, should provide fair and equal treatment to all neighborhoods. At the meeting, Steve summarized each College Park neighborhood and their existing sidewalk status. Some neighborhoods have 100% coverage (downtown area); others have 0% (east and west sides of City). AMT requests that the City provides a quick markup of the city map outlining this information. o Cost estimating is critical for City’s planning and long term (5-year) funding efforts. o This project is focused on neighborhood streets with narrow ROWs. Typical street in C.P. may be 26’ face-of-curb to face-of-curb with a 30’ ROW. ROW varies from 30-80 feet from block to block. Doesn’t leave much space for improvements. Try to work within the ROW, but if easements are needed in order to complete a project, AMT should make that recommendation. ROW takings are not off the table. o AMT to research Prince George’s Co. DPWT CIP online for projects already funded. AMT should avoid analyzing these streets and focus on potential new projects. City will provide a list of streets that they are already working on so we don’t duplicate effort. City will send list of any streets that residents have specifically raised concerns about regarding walkability. Calvert Trails neighborhood is one area with a big demand for more sidewalks. o AMT recommended projects should prioritize connectivity. o Citizen participation during planning and design process is critical for project buy-in. o Projects should be complete streets – not just sidewalks, but furnishings, striping, on-street parking, tree planting, etc. City is rapidly losing tree canopy coverage. Protect existing trees. o The SOW identifies that AMT should assume that the City “would have available $200,000 per year for design and construction (assuming no grant funding)” AMT identified that this will not go very far. However, should design to this amount to maximum extent practicable. AMT to identify potential grant sources. o County and City to provide available GIS data for City limits, including topography, property/ROW, and aerial photography. Please note that GIS-level data, especially for ROW and property lines, is notoriously inaccurate. Stakeholders o UMD – only if necessary o County DPWT – for projects intersecting with county roads o MDOT SHA District 3 – projects intersecting state roads Ongoing initiatives o Vision Zero adopted by County. o Complete Streets Policy is adopted by City Council and Mayor. o City is starting new bike (pedal and electric) and e-scooter program called VeoRide.

Rhode Island Avenue (approx. 160’ ROW) – currently travel lanes are County-owned and maintained; service roads are City-owned and maintained. City is negotiating with County for full maintenance of the roadway within City limits. (RI Avenue is not within the scope of work for this project but this is valuable information to know). Knox Road, west of US 1 has non-standard 40-foot ROW. City is requesting an additional 10 feet but are getting push back from UMD. AMT to study each of these and coordinate with final product.
Schedule o 1-year schedule for this project. o City will notify AMT of any dates that need to be set for Community Meetings so AMT can adjust schedule (Task 2) accordingly. o AMT to produce a work plan and schedule before 9/23.

Dear Ms. Schum: Please see below for a discussion and analysis of several upcoming tasks for the College Park Complete and Green Streets Project. MATRIX CRITIQUE The (Draft) College Park Complete Streets Prioritization Matrix was prepared by City staff and wisely focuses on connector streets that link to Route 1, Rhode Island Avenue, and other major destinations. This matrix itemizes sections of various City streets – varying in length from 251 feet to 3,942 feet – and assigns a “Priority Score” based on potential obstacles (i.e., distance between the right-of-way line and back of curb, topography/slope, and existing vegetation) as well as potential opportunities (i.e., the lack of an existing sidewalk, the potential for green stormwater infrastructure). The streets range from a low score of 2 to a high score of 11. Based on the draft matrix, an initial inventory of the highest-rated priority streets (scored 9 and above) reveals the following observations: • 52nd Avenue between Kenesaw Huron Street and Narragansett Pkwy: minor residential street, on-street parking; wide ROW, flat topography, no sidewalks currently, utility poles and fire hydrants are present • Berwyn Road between Route 1 and 48th Avenue: mixed-use/commercial connection at Route 1, walls required on north side, utility poles, residences and sidewalk present on south side, sharrows on each side of street • Berwyn Road between Potomac Avenue and Railroad Tracks: sidewalk on each side, sharrows on each side of street, on street parking on one side, connection to pedestrian bridge over railroad, wide ROW, flat topography, utilities and power poles present • Blackfoot Place between Rhode Island Ave and 51st Avenue: major intersection with New Hampshire Avenue, no connection to existing asphalt trail at New Hampshire Avenue, no sidewalks, community park, major trees, narrow ROW, utility poles, flat topography • Edgewood Road between Route 1 and 47th Place: three lanes, sidewalks one side, wide ROW, utility poles • Edgewood Road between 52nd Avenue and 53rd Avenue: narrow ROW, sidewalk and residential on one side, forest/mature trees on opposite side, very narrow ROW, flat topography • Huron Street between 51st Avenue and 52nd Avenue: no sidewalks, wide ROW, utility poles/fire hydrant, mature trees • Knoxville Drive between Radcliffe Drive and Edmonston Road: narrow street, utility poles, fire hydrant, no sidewalk A.

The City’s draft matrix unquestionably provides valuable insight into the scope of this project. However, the matrix currently lacks rankings for several other important components needed for the proper evaluation and concept design of the City’s streetscapes. This includes scores for the following objective items: • Storm drain infrastructure: Although not necessary for the implementation of potential low-impact development SWM measures, the presence of a public storm drain system increases the potential for stormwater improvements in the right-of-way. • On-street parking: Residents will object to any removal of parking in order to implement the streetscape improvements. • Existing above-ground utilities such as utility poles, guy wires, fire hydrants: Such utilities are often in conflict with proposed streetscape improvements. Moving these utilities is expensive and significantly reduces project budgets for the actual proposed improvements. • ADA compliance: Streets may or may not comply with ADA requirements. (i.e., curb cuts/ramps, detectable warning surfaces, acceptable cross slopes, acceptable clearances, crosswalks). • Environmental features: When present, well-established canopy trees (and their roots), wetlands, streams and bridges pose a challenge to implementation in a manner that is thoughtful and respectful of existing features that must be protected. Updating the matrix as described above will require a significant effort. Additional field reconnaissance may be necessary. Fortunately, AMT’s offices are within a 30-minute drive of the City. The City staff’s local knowledge and understanding of existing conditions is invaluable as the matrix is updated. REVIEW OF EXISTING PLANS AND REPORTS The several existing plans and reports listed in the RFP reinforce the intent and scope of this project. For example, The Prince George’s County Approved Countywide Master Plan of Transportation (2009) highlights the important of bikeways, pedestrian mobility and complete streets as a means of providing transit-oriented development, reduced congestion, reduced vehicle miles travelled, improved access to the WMATA Purple Line. These improvements ultimately lead to economic development, urban density and obviously a diversity of transit options. The City’s recently approved Complete Streets Policy provides perhaps the greatest framework for this project. Notably, the policy states that “because the local roads are under the direct jurisdiction of the City, they provide the greatest flexibility when it comes to implementing Complete Street principles and policies” (20). This project aligns perfectly with that sentiment. Other items of note: • The highest gaps in the sidewalk connectivity network include the area between Berwyn House Road and Navahoe Street, northward to the beltway; Acredale, and; Vassar Drive/Bryn Mawr Road southward to Radcliffe Drive on the west side of Kenilworth Avenue. • Existing typical sections are shown, showing ROWs as narrow as 25’, which does not allow for significant roadway improvements without easements on private property. • Like other reports, it identifies project principles that are well-aligned with the goals of this project. • Identifies missing vehicular and non-vehicular connections between dead-end streets.

Diagrams traffic-calming methods (i.e., restriping, chicanes, modified intersections, mid-block yields, raised intersections, mini-roundabouts, bumpouts, speed humps, crosswalk refuges, cycle tracks, sharrows, multiuse paths, buffered bike lanes) that are improvements likely to be included within this project. Many of these strategies are further designed and analyzed in NACTO’s Design Guides.
SELECTION STRATGIES Improving and revising the project matrix will offer a data-driven method for comparing the City’s streets in an applesto-apples manner. Following the matrix update, the City and AMT will collaborate on selecting five streets for further study. AMT will require additional information from the City. This includes: • Map showing each of the City’s neighborhoods and an approximately percentage of streets with sidewalks currently. This was quickly discussed at the kick-off meeting; however, we will benefit from having this information in mapped form. Understanding walkability from a neighborhood scale will help to ensure equity in the allocation of design and construction funds. • GIS information, including right-of-way lines, property lines, topography, and other planimetric information. Please note that GIS ROW/property lines are notoriously inaccurate. As specified in the RFP, detailed property survey is excluded from the scope of work. If needed, AMT can provide property/boundary/right-of-way surveys for selected streets as an additional service. Whereas the matrix provides objective measurement, AMT will also rely upon the City to provide more subjective input during the selection process. This includes: • Expression of public desire: I.E., has the community specifically requested improvements made on certain streets? • Identification of critical connections, other transit options or destinations within a 0.5-mile radius: projects that have the potential to connect to existing “hubs” or points of interest should be prioritized as they offer the greatest return on investment from a “complete green street” perspective. • If a street section already has an ADA-compliant sidewalk, it should be removed from the matrix. This will help to ensure that the City’s design/construction funds are distributed in a fair and equitable manner. Lastly, we must consider existing projects that are either already funded or already in the midst of design or construction. The selection of the five streets must exclude any such projects. • The Prince George’s County CIP does not list any projects that could overlap with the scope of this project. • The City is already underway on some streetscape improvements. The City needs to provide a list of any such projects to AMT. After considering the revised matrix, GIS data, public sentiment, previous studies, and current projects, AMT and the City will finally have the information needed in order to begin coordination with project stakeholders. STAKEHOLDER OUTREACH STRATEGIES Project stakeholders include: • Prince George’s County Department of Public Works and Transportation (DPWT) – for projects that intersect/connect to county roads • MDOT SHA District 3 – for projects that intersect/connect to state roads • University of Maryland (UMD) – for projects that intersect/connect to University property • City of College Park staff Page 3

At the stakeholder meetings, we will focus on the updated matrix and the street selection process as described previously. The purpose of the meeting is to solicit input from various diverse perspectives, identify any critical items that may have been previously missed, coordinate amongst the various parties, clarify design and construction funding, and discussion the general intent of the proposed designs. AMT’s role at the stakeholder meeting is to lead the presentation and discussion. A presentation will be used to convey our selection strategies and process; handouts, graphics and maps will further explain the project’s intent and scope. The City and M-NCPPC are responsible for arranging, advertising, facilitating and hosting all meetings. It should be noted that inherent to the selection process is an exhaustive ranking of the potential streets. Therefore, if the stakeholders eliminate one of the five selected streets from consideration, the next highest rated street will be added in the place of the eliminated street.

As the project moves towards contract Tasks 3 & 4, the City of College Park and AMT met to discuss priority streets for further design concepting and cost estimating, the project schedule and next steps.
AMT summarized work completed over the last couple weeks. o Used GIS mapping (sources included City of College Park shapefiles and publicly available Prince George’s County shapefiles) to study existing conditions and gain familiarity with City. The information most helpful to moving forward onto Task 3 & 4 was the sidewalk analysis map and the % sidewalk coverage by neighborhood association map. o AMT created a spreadsheet listing all the City’s approximately 150 street names and eliminated any streets that currently have sidewalks from consideration for priority streets. AMT recommends prioritizing neighborhoods with currently low sidewalk coverage first for an equitable treatment of the City’s different neighborhoods. Streets that are lacking sidewalk connectivity are recommended for further study. Streets near public facilities (i.e., parks, libraries, metro stations, etc.) are also prioritized. City reviewed the “CIP Budget Update” document o This document lists streets funded for design and construction. These streets will be subject to further review/study by AMT. o The document also lists several streets recommended by the City engineer. o Many of the streets on AMT’s spreadsheet and the City’s CIP update document overlapped. After reviewing the documents, City and AMT agreed to move forward with several streets. 1. St. Andrew’s Place: from Duke St. to De Pauw Place 2. DePauw Place: St. Andrew’s Place to dead end/Gettysburg Lane a. Refine concept, provide cost estimate, one or both sides b. MNCPPC is developing a trail which ties into the north side of DePauw 3. Bowdoin Avenue: from Harvard to Erskine 4. Edmonston: from Old Calvert to Bryn Mawr 5. Fox St: from US 1 to 51st Ave 6. Hollywood: from Rhode Island to US1 a. City has 30% plans and shared them with AMT. AMT to review cost estimate only.

As the project moves towards contract Task 4, the City of College Park (City) and AMT met to discuss the twelve (12) priority streets and select the top (5) for further concept designing and cost estimating.
AMT summarized work completed since December 2019 project meeting. o Used GIS mapping of the City to illustrate the twelve (12) priority streets subdivided by the six (6) highest rated streets and the six (6) “second tier” streets as determined at the December 12th meeting. Highest rated streets: 1. St. Andrews Place (from Duke Street to De Pauw Place) 2. De Pauw Place (from St. Andrews Place to dead end/Gettysburg Lane) 3. Wellesley Drive (from Edmonston Road to Sweetbriar Drive) 4. Cherokee Street (from 48th Place to Rhode Island Avenue) 5. Edmonston Road (from Old Calvert Road to Bryn Mawr Road) 6. 48th Place (from 47th Place to Delaware Street) [or at least to Indian Lane or Fox Street] Lowest rated streets: 7. 52nd Avenue (from Narragansett Parkway to Huron Street) 8. Bowdoin Avenue (from Harvard Road to Erskine Road) 9. 49th Place (from Muskogee Street to Hollywood Road) 10. Fox Street (from US Route 1 to 51st Avenue) 11. Iroquois Street (from Rhode Island Avenue to Davis Field Playground) 12. Hollywood Road (from US Route 1 to Rhode Island Avenue) o AMT refined the Priority Street Selection Matrix to add two (2) more rating criteria including LID Potential (opportunities for bump‐outs and SWM) and Connectivity Score (neighborhood sidewalk coverage and connections to parks, public facilities, existing sidewalks, proposed sidewalks/trails, and bus routes). Discussion points: o Concept plans for the Old Calvert Road connection from Edmonston Road to Campus Drive need to be developed. Looking to tie into Edmonston Road project.

o
Steve Halpern will provide an update on the sidewalk connection along Metzerott Road to the east of St. Andrews Place. o Flexi‐pave was recently installed along Quebec Street around some trees. It is initially costly but effective rather than tree grates. o Cherokee Street – can replace the 18” bradford pears. ROW width is 50 feet from 48th Place to Rhode Island Avenue. o Edmonston Road – find out if Steve H. has the plans; people park between Knoxville Road and Bryn Mawr Road; need to avoid impacting the on‐street parking; adding curb and gutter will have an effect on drainage and SWM; Councilmember lives in this area and wants this project. o Sites #1‐#4 from the highest rated streets are very good candidates. o 49th Place – ROW width from Lackawanna Street to Hollywood Road is 60 feet and north of Lackawanna Street to Muskogee Street is 35 feet. Instead of limits from Muskogee Street to Hollywood Road, maybe from Muskogee Street to Laguna Road. o Indian Lane – from Rhode Island Avenue to 51st Avenue (near DPW); this section of roadway is a possible priority street candidate; there are bus stops for students but they have to stand in the roadway; wide ROW; parking on both sides; overhead on north side; City is in discussions with Prince George’s County DPWT to take over Rhode Island Avenue. o AMT will develop 30% cost estimate for Hollywood Road. o City noted to look for RFP for Hollywood Road design project. Next Project Steps: o Request Steve H. to review the twelve (12) priority streets and confirm the “top five” highest rated streets. o City has asked AMT to present the current matrix to the City Council on Tuesday, February 18th, 2020 at 7:30pm at DPW. It will be a 30‐minute presentation. o Presentation should include: Process used to arrive at this point. Existing sidewalks. Connectivity. Information from prior reports. Process of elimination. “Top 5”. Next steps. o City needs to upload presentation to website for Council review by Friday, February 14th. AMT to provide a draft presentation for City review by Monday, February 10th.

The City Planning Department and AMT presented a project update, focusing on the process used to update the City’s 2017 Matrix as well as AMT’s recommend list of streets for 30% design.
Terry Schum introduced the project, summarizing progress since the 2017 matrix. She explained the scope of work and intent for this project, as well as M-NCPPC’s funding role and other “sidewalk/streetscape” projects that are not a part of this project. AMT presented the Powerpoint presentation followed by a question and answer session. Questions/Comments regarding Process: o Matrix should include a column for a SAFETY score of each street – either current safety or potential safety improvements. This safety score may include information or data on traffic counts. Questions/Comments regarding AMT’s Recommended Streets o Edmonston Drive – based on prior community feedback, the new sidewalk should be on the east side of the road, not the west side (which is the residential side). Planning Department and AMT initially recommended the sidewalk on the west side (residential side) because it is easier to access (avoids the need for pedestrians to cross Edmonston) and thus likely to be used more frequently than a sidewalk on the east side. Councilmember expressed that a sidewalk on the west side will be heavily objected to because of portions of the road where parallel parking is present. AMT acknowledge that in select areas of the west side, retaining walls would be needed. o Wellelsey Drive – currently very wide and offers plenty of space for pedestrians to walk in the roadway. Other streets may be better served by a new sidewalk – i.e., Bowdoin Drive rather than Wellesley. o DePauw Place – resident previously expressed that a sidewalk should not be added here. AMT explained the potential connection to a new trail by MNCPPC at the DePauw Place dead-end, as well as the potential to connect to a new sidewalk on St. Andrews. Councilmember expressed that a resident is especially concerned with the preservation of the large trees near the end of the block. AMT expressed that approximately 90% of DePauw sidewalk is away from trees, and that where trees are present, the sidewalk could be bumped out to avoid them.

GENERAL COMMENTS:
1. Provide house numbers on plans for referencing. AMT RESPONSE: Added. 2. A typical street section for each segment would be nice. AMT RESPONSE: Street sections have been added. 3. It doesn’t look like opportunities for street tree plantings and micro‐bioretention were addressed. AMT RESPONSE: Trees and micro‐bioretention are added where appropriate. Trees added: St. Andrews, Cherokee, 52nd Micro‐bio bump‐outs added: St. Andrews, Edmonston There is not adequate space for either on Bowdoin. Bowdoin also has overhead lines that make tree planting not realistic. 4. What about curb bump‐outs where appropriate where there is on‐street parking? AMT RESPONSE: See above. 5. For the final report, a short narrative summary would also be helpful to describe the limits of work, what side of the street, unusual constraints and rationale for particular decisions. AMT RESPONSE: Narrative has been provided.
SPEC IFIC COMMENTS:
St Andrews Pl sheets C101 thru C104 Looks good with bump‐out and wall. AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged. Sheet C102 – Can replacement tree be planted behind the curb? AMT RESPONSE: Due to a steep bank in front of the house, the proposed 5’ sidewalk is only 3’ off the back of curb. A 5’ offset is not feasible as this increases disturbance and the amount of grading needed. We do not recommend planting a street tree in that limited 3’ space. Cherokee Street sheet s C201 thru C202 C201 – confirming the plan shows a curb extension from 48th Pl to 4808 Cherokee St. and provide striped crosswalks AMT RESPONSE: Yes, correct about the curb extension. Striped crosswalks added.

C202 – plan does not show existing guardrail on the side of 4920 Cherokee St. and provide striped crosswalks AMT RESPONSE: Guardrail added to the plans. Striped crosswalks added. Good tree conservation. AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged. Please explain reasons for choosing the north side of the street. AMT RESPONSE: South side was avoided due to several high‐quality trees between 48th place and 49th Ave and beyond. The north side is a safer option for navigating around the triangle between 49th Ave and 49th Place.
52nd Ave: Sheets C301 thru C302 Sheets showing sidewalk from Huron St to Kenesaw St are missing. AMT RESPONSE: As indicated in the matrix, building a sidewalk south of Kenesaw is not cost effective. o The west side of 52nd south of Kenesaw has a very steep bank at the road edge, as well as several stairs and a retaining wall at the road edge. o The east side of 52nd south of Kenesaw has multiple chain link fences that are at or near the back of the curb. A sidewalk here would require removing and replacing those fences and it dd not seem cost effective to do so. There are also utility poles and slight bank on the east side. Steve likes the sidewalk location. AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged. C301 ‐ provide striped crosswalks AMT RESPONSE: Striped crosswalks added. C302 – provide striped crosswalks AMT RESPONSE: Striped crosswalks added. Please explain reasons for choosing the west side of the street. AMT RESPONSE: There are fewer obstacles (trees and utility poles) on the west side. Private fence lines align well with the ROW line, reducing the need to relocate residents’ private fences. Bowdoin Ave: Sheets C401 thru C402 Like the narrowing of the street from Erskine to Harvard. AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged. Discuss the option of narrowing the street north of Harvard. AMT RESPONSE: Plans are revised. Edmonston Rd: sheets C501 thru C508 C501 – like the sidewalk orientation AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged. C505 – like the sidewalk orientation AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged.

AMT RESPONSE: Acknowledged. Sidewalk is missing from Bryn Mawr Rd to city Line. AMT RESPONSE: The matrix and prior map only showed sidewalk between Bryn Mawr and Old Calvert. However, we extended the sidewalk further to the city line. Should note that much more attention will be required for the slope adjacent to the sidewalk. AMT RESPONSE: Agree. It will be a more expensive sidewalk to build because of the existing grade. I’m concerned about the amount of clearing required and changing sides of the street. Wouldn’t the west side be less disruptive and cheaper? I understand this was a political decision but maybe the consultants can include some editorial comments in case this decision is revisited. AMT RESPONSE: Our recommendation, for multiple reasons, was the west side of the street. However, a councilmember was adamant that his constituents opposed the west side option. Based on feedback at the Council meeting, we opted for the east side.

30% design complete with a Safe Routes to School grant for 100% design. 100% design expected to be completed around June 2021. Provide cost estimate based on 30% design.
City received two cost proposals for design but neither design nor construction is under contract. Interest based on new dog park, family neighborhood and metro access. Not initiated. Not initiated.
Final design with construction pending for 2020. Concept sidewalk design on the east side; but no cost estimate for final design or construction. Constructibility may be an issue. Sidewalk along west side of Bowdoin in front of U.S. Post Office to be completed in FY 20. Concept design and estimate for sidewalk on the south side. Complete
NOTE
The following street segments are funded for design and construction in the FY 2020–2024 CIP. Their current status and years funded are noted. Although funding is already secured, analysis of these street segments is still required. The city requested that A. Morton Thomas and Associates, Inc., (AMT) study the concept designs of these street segments and provide a recommendation for each.

REASON
FEEDBACK FROM CITY ON THE REVIEW OF THE CITY’S ORIGINAL MATRIX AND AMT’S LIST OF POTENTIAL STREETS City planning department staff commented on AMT’s initial shortlist of city streets and AMT’s critique of the city’s draft matrix (see Appendix C). Regarding specific streets, city comment is summarized at left. Based on their knowledge of the city, comments previously received, and the current CIP, the city recommended that certain streets should be either added or removed from the matrix for further consideration as a complete street reconstruction candidate.

1. Recommend a new sidewalk on north side of Cherokee Street that connects to the sidewalk already built by the Metropolitan developer.
1. A proposed hard-surface, shared-use trail is planned to link with the DePauw Place street centerline. (Source: PGAtlas) 2. City's concept proposes a sidewalk on each side. There are "desire paths" on each side of guardrail currently. 3. Recommend sidewalk starting on the north side 11.5 of the DePauw Place St. Andrews Place intersection because utility poles are on the south side of DePauw Place. Continue to intersection with Limestone Place. 4. After Limestone Place, major trees will complicate continuing to the dead end. Bumpouts may be needed but will take away parallel parking. If ROW is wide enough, use an "on‐grade" flexible porous/permeable sidewalk section in tree CRZs.
Due the the width of the street, there is considerable potential for a complete street with SWM bump‐outs, maintaining the parallel parking, protecting mature trees, avoiding utilities, and adding a sidewalk on the NE side (and a connection to a potential sidewalk on Edmonston). If too challenging, could end the new complete street/sidewalks at Bryn Mawr Road.
30% Recommendations
1. City's concept at Metzerott Road/St. Andrews Place is on the north side of Metzerott Road/east side of St. Andrews Place. Metzerott Road (county road) may receive a future sidewalk but is outside scope of work for this project. Currently there is a "desire path" on the east corner of St. Andrews 12.5 Place/Metzerott Road. 2. Proposed sidewalk begins on north side of Duke Street. 3. Proposed sidewalk on east side of St. Andrews Place to De Pauw Place corner. This is the same side recommended by the City's initial matrix.
