Central Maryland Regional Transit Plan Pilot Corridor Analysis

The Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC) is soliciting proposals from qualified firm(s) or organization(s) for professional services to begin the corridor feasibility study phase of the Central MD Regional Transit Plan Corridor 25: from Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) to Columbia Town Center. This task will evaluate transit needs and identify mode, alignment, routing and potential stops/station areas along the corridor. The task will also include development of cost estimates, potential operators and potential state and federal funding opportunities.

As identified in the UPWP, this pilot task is anticipated to be the first of multiple corridor feasibility studies undertaken by BMC, emerging from the Central MD Regional Transit Plan process and in support of plan implementation.

Proposals must be received by BMC no later than Friday, January 21, 2022 by 2 p.m.

Transportation Issues In Historic Town Centers

The Baltimore region includes a number of small historic town centers that have developed with significant geographic constraints that experience challenges with parking management, wayfinding and multimodal access.
