The Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT), in partnership with the Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT), invites the public to attend two open houses to learn
more about and provide input on plans to develop Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) along a portion of the MD 355 corridor from Bethesda to Clarksburg. At the open
houses, residents will have the opportunity to meet the project team and get
more information about:
- How BRT works, what it looks like and other details about operations;
- The study process and schedule;
- Existing conditions in the study area; and
- A draft preliminary purpose and need statement for the project.
The first Open House is scheduled
for Thursday, April 28, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Bethesda–Chevy Chase High School Cafeteria, 4301 East-West Highway, Bethesda.
The second Open House will be held Tuesday, May 3, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Gaithersburg High School Cafeteria, 101 Education Boulevard, Gaithersburg.
The same information will be presented at each meeting and attendees are encouraged to stop by anytime during the open houses.
