Results of King Farm Feasibility Study

The CCT public hearing in December 2010 included dozens of comments from concerned citizens of the King Farm community about the potential for impacts resulting from the CCT's operation on King Farm Boulevard. In January 2011, the Rockville Mayor and City Council formally requested the MTA to study alignment alternatives to the Master Plan alignment in the median of King Farm Boulevard. The MTA examined the feasibility of alternative alignments to King Farm Boulevard and have concluded that none performs as well as the King Farm Boulevard alignment. The results of that study are reported in the following report documents.

Community Turns Out for December 2010 Open House/Public Hearing

Approximately 250 people attended an Open House and Public Hearing on December 15, 2010 in Gaithersburg, Maryland to review and comment on the CCT Supplemental Environmental Assessment (SEA). The SEA focuses on alignment modifications near Crown Farm, Life Sciences Center and Kentlands in Gaithersburg, and other new developments since the last open house in June 2009. Many people provided written, public and private testimony on the SEA, and the CCT overall, which will become part of the public record. The public comment period ended February 1, 2011.

The Community Has Spoken

Public hearing attendees had the option of providing public or private oral testimony, and written comments. In total, approximately 378 citizens, government agencies, and non-profit organizations provided comments at the hearing and during the public comment period which began on November 29, 2010 and ended on February 1, 2011. Comments received by MTA and SHA included email, website submissions, letters, and petitions from King Farm residents. View full public comment summary.
