On Tuesday, Oct. 28, at 6:30 p.m., the Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) will hold an in-person public hearing to discuss the proposed Carroll Avenue Separated Bike Lanes project in Takoma Park. The public will have an opportunity to provide testimony and ask questions.  

The Carroll Avenue Separated Bike Lanes Project will add a low-stress bikeway to Carroll Avenue between Merrimac Drive and Piney Branch Road (MD 320) in the Takoma/Langley Crossroads area. This facility will help to provide connections for cyclists to the future Purple Line station at Takoma/Langley Transit Center.
