LANGLEY PARK NEIGHBORHOODS BICYCLE BOULEVARDS
Planning Process The project team developed a streamlined planning process to guide the project through various tasks. The project began with a kick-off meeting on December 7, 2020. As part of the existing conditions analysis, the project team developed an engineering basemap based
on readily available data. This basemap was used for the 30% design plans. The project team shared the design alternatives and the prioritization methodology as part of a virtual public meeting on March 18, 2021.

PROJECT GOALS
EVALUATION MEASURES
The project team identified three project goals to further the overarching vision of creating comfortable neighborhood bicycle connections to and from the proposed Purple Line station:
The preferred design alternative for each study segment was based on public input and a qualitative assessment using the following measures:
•
•
•
Develop conceptual design alternatives for each study segment.
•
Bicycle Safety and Comfort
•
Public and Stakeholder Input
Seek public feedback on conceptual design alternatives and choose preferred alternatives.
•
Estimated Cost
•
Right-of-Way Impacts
•
Parking and Property Access Impacts
•
Drainage and Utility Impacts
Finalize preferred design alternatives and develop 30% design.
The outcome of this project is this final report document as well as 30% preliminary design plans for bicycle facilities and traffic calming elements for the study segments. These plans are based on a preferred alternative identified through public input and a planning-level qualitative assessment. The planning-level qualitative assessment was conducted using a list of evaluation measures. Prince George’s County Planning Department • Page 11
