MTA has many exciting initiatives underway to develop new facilities and services across Maryland. Click on the logos below for current information about projects.

Red Line

The Baltimore Red Line is a proposed 14-mile light rail line connecting the areas of Woodlawn, Edmondson Village, West Baltimore, downtown Baltimore, Harbor East, Fells Point, Canton, and the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center with direct connections to existing Metro Subway, Light Rail, MARC Train and local bus services. To learn more about the Community Compact or to learn more about the Red Line in Baltimore City go to Go Baltimore Red Line.

The Purple Line is a proposed 16-mile light rail line extending from New Carrollton in Prince George's County to Bethesda in Montgomery County. It would provide a direct connection to the Metrorail Red, Green and Orange Lines. The Purple Line would also connect to MARC Train, Amtrak and local bus services.

Route 270 and Route 15 Road signs

 

Corridor Cities Transitway (CCT), part of the I-270/US 15 Multi-Modal Corridor Study. This project is a study of the 14 mile transit corridor originally established in Montgomery County master plans in the early 1970s. The right-of-way has been reserved through the development process. The transitway  runs generally northwest from the Shady Grove Metro Station in Rockville through Gaithersburg and Germantown where it terminates at the COMSAT facility just south of Clarksburg.

MARC Growth & Investment Plan

The Kirk Division Modernization Project includes replacement of the existing facility with new energy-efficient buildings that will enclose all bus operating and maintenance operations for greater cost-effectiveness and efficiencies and provide a more aesthetically appealing facility that will enhance the community.
