The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) Office of Planning and Preliminary Engineering (OPPE), in consultation with MDOT SHA District 3, completed a comprehensive needs analysis for MD 187 (Old Georgetown Road) between McKinley Street in Bethesda, and Tilden Lane/Nicholson Lane in White Flint. This document outlines a long-term vision for the corridor by identifying strategies to address pedestrian and bicycle network needs, enhance multimodal safety and improve travel conditions along the corridor.

This needs analysis provides a road map to deliver improvements based on the MDOT SHA Context Driven - Access & Mobility for All Users guide, a planning and design resource for establishing safe and effective multi-modal transportation systems. It weighs the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists and drivers in the context of the surrounding environment and provides targeted strategies that overcome deficiencies and improve safety and mobility in the network.
