Prince George’s County-Fort Washington Community Forum on Transportation, Road Safety & Bicycling
Southern Prince George’s County faces transportation challenges that affect residents, businesses and employees, visitors, and the quality of life. Indian Head Highway is particularly unsafe, southern PGC transit falls short, and the area lacks safe pedestrian and bicycling infrastructure and the network of trails found in other parts of the county. Equity is a key consideration.
