Description
Title: Transit Initiative - Safer Routes
Summary
The "Safe Routes to Transit Study," presented to the Annapolis Transportation Committee on July 9, 2025, aims to enhance access to public transit for pedestrians and cyclists. Led by Project Manager Adam Greenstein, the study involves multiple stakeholders, including local and state agencies. Its primary goals are to improve infrastructure at transit stops, prioritize areas with high need, and ensure community input throughout the process. Key proposed improvements include sidewalks, upgraded crosswalks, and enhanced bus stop facilities like benches and lighting. The study is structured in several phases, with public engagement ongoing, and is expected to culminate in a final action plan by September 2026. This initiative is crucial for promoting safety, equity, and increased ridership in Annapolis.
