In 1997, the County adopted the General Development Plan.With the adoption of this Plan, the County created a Transportation Plan Map. This map identifies current and future highway and transit proposals throughout the County. The Map also identifies roadways by their functional classification which is the method used to determine the purpose and design of the roadway. Roadways on the Plan are improved through the Capital Improvement Program or by requirements imposed on land developers through a permit process. For further information regarding design of roadways, please consult the Department of Public Works or the Maryland State Highway Administration. |
