Pedestrian Safety Action Plan Project on MD 650 (New Hampshire Avenue)

under construction

This project involves $15 million in pedestrian, bicycle, and multi-modal improvements along nearly 2.5 miles of MD 650 (New Hampshire Avenue) from University Boulevard to Powder Mill Road in Prince George's and Montgomery counties. The improvements include new crosswalks and signals, upgraded pedestrian ramps and bus stops to meet ADA standards, corridor-wide lighting improvements, ramp realignments at the MD 650 and I-495 interchange, improved transit connectivity with raised speed tables for safer bus stop access, median fencing to deter mid-block crossings, and other safety features.
