What is Go Prince George’s?
Go Prince George’s is the new preliminary functional master plan for transportation facilities in Prince George’s County. It implements Plan Prince George’s 2035, the County’s approved general plan, by setting a guiding vision, supporting goals, and measurable actions to transform the County’s transportation network by creating more travel options, focusing on the movement of people versus solely the movement of vehicles. Upon final approval, Go Prince George’s will update and replace the 2009 MPOT Approved Countywide Master Plan of Transportation and will carry forward or update the transportation recommendations from active area master and sector master plans and recently completed transportation studies.
