Re: DPW Updates to Bicycle and Pedestrian Committee
Since our committee meeting on October 12, 2022, I have the following updates to report on behalf of
Public Works and City staff:
• The scope of work has been finalized for the Climate Action Transportation Plan and will be kicked
off with the CCRPC and VHB in the coming weeks. An advisory committee for this group will be
assembled by Jessie Baker (City Manager) and will consist of 8 – 10 people.
• Smart Growth held 4 webinars over the course of “Walktober” with the Maryland Departments of
Planning and Transportation. I listened in to 2 of them and they were great. All of them are
recorded and available online. I definitely recommend checking them out! Maryland Celebrates
Walktober 2022 with a New Series of Walkinars - Smart Growth Online
• The study with CCRPC and Hoyle Tanner looking at 4 potential crosswalk locations is underway
and they plan to come to the December committee meeting to present their concepts and solicit
feedback from the committee and the public.
• Design continues on the Spear Street path and is moving into preliminary design.
• The ROW phase for the Dorset Street path is ongoing and will likely continue through much of
winter with plans to construct in Summer 2023.
• DPW has been working with Stantec to develop internal DPW design and construction standards
for consistency on all new projects (both private and public) and includes standards on bicycle and
pedestrian facilities so that the network will become more consistent and predictable.
