LOCAL
AREA TRANSPORTATION REVIEW GUIDELINES
Public Hearing Set for Thursday, April 22 Transportation Planning staff is suggesting changes to the Local Area Transportation Review (LATR) Guidelines in response to the County Council's revision of the Annual Growth Policy adopted in October of 2003, which will become effective July 1, 2004. The Planning Board will hear testimony on the proposed changes at a Public Hearing on Thursday, April 22. To sign up in advance to speak, please call 301-495-4600. The County Council eliminated Policy Area Transportation Review as of July 1, 2004, and made other changes to the AGP which resulted in revising several provisions in the LATR Guidelines, as follows: 1. Intersection
congestion standards are lowered by 50 critical lane volume (CLV) movements
in all policy areas except Central Business District and Metro Station
Policy Areas. We invite you to review the proposed revisions. Copies of the draft LATR Guidelines are available from the Transportation Planning Unit in Room 105 of the Montgomery Regional Office; by calling 301-495-4525 to request a copy; or on our web site at www.mc-mncppc.org. Please submit written comments as soon as possible, but no later than April 23, 2004, to: Derick P. Berlage,
Chairman If you have technical
questions or want more a more detailed explanation, please contact |
