Virtual Hearing on the Boyds Transit Center to be Held on Tuesday, August 16

Per MCDOT:
On Tuesday, August 16 starting at 7 p.m., the Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) will hold a virtual public hearing regarding the 70% design plans for the Transit Center in Boyds, MD. The public will have an opportunity to provide written and oral testimony on the project design.

The Boyds Transit Center project will provide a new bus loop and parking lot on the former Anderson property at the Boyds MARC station. This project will address the increased demand for commuter parking at the Boyds MARC station and the Ride On needs for future expansion of service from Clarksburg to the MARC station.

Online registration is required to attend. On the morning of the hearing, an electronic invitation to participate in this hearing will be emailed to you. Testimony and information provided will become a matter of public record and may influence final design plans.

The public is encouraged to review the project files posted on the project website prior to attending the hearing.

Written testimony or questions may be submitted to the Project Manager, Rebecca Park, through this online comment form or by emailing [email protected].  Written testimony carries the same weight as oral testimony.

Interpreter services will be provided upon request with five business days advance notice by contacting Rebecca Park.
