MCDOT has begun
constructing separated bike lanes on Nebel Street in
White Flint. The new separated bike lanes will run from Randolph Road to
Marinelli Road. They connect to existing
shared use paths along Randolph Road and Nebel Street north of Randolph and
will also connect to future separated bike lanes on Marinelli Road.
The
Nebel Street separated bike lanes are part of a larger network of low-stress
bikeways planned for White Flint. In 2014, the County constructed the nearby
Woodglen Drive Cycle Track. Separated bike lanes are planned for Marinelli
Road, Nicholson Lane, and other streets in White Flint.
What
are separated bike lanes? Separated bike lanes are similar to conventional bike
lanes; however, separated bike lanes include some type of barrier between the
bike lane and vehicle traffic. This barrier can be flexposts, parked cars, or a
raised median. Along Nebel Street, the barrier will include flexposts and
parking.
MCDOT hopes to begin work this fall on separated bike lanes along Spring Street in Silver Spring. Read more.
