Community Outreach Process
The community-outreach phases of the 355/270 Technology Corridor Study are detailed below:
Work Program Development Committee
The first phase of our work was to undertake detailed data collection, technical analysis, map preparation, and begin community information gathering. Much of this work is done prior to generating ideas, problem solving, and developing recommendations. Work on the inventory and analysis phase began in the fall of 2006 by establishing a Work Program Development Committee made up of community representatives from the various communities along the entire length of MD 355. Work programs for the inventory and analysis phase were developed for: research, transportation, the environment, parks, and urban design. View the work programs for each discipline(pdf), and learn more about the committee.
