Upcoming Public Charrette
This is a public charrette for the Northern Prince George’s East-West Bikeway Feasibility Study. The Prince George’s County Department has received a Transportation and Land Use Connections grant to conduct a 2-mile bikeway feasibility study from the intersection of MD 201/Kenilworth Avenue and River Road in Riverdale Park to the western end of Longbranch Drive at Wildercroft Park in New Carrollton. We are seeking public review and comment as we prepare this feasibility study, which is due on June 30, 2026.
When: Monday, April 20, from 6:00–8:00 p.m.
Where: Park and Recreation Administration Auditorium, 6600 Kenilworth Avenue, Riverdale Park, MD 20737
Overview
The Northern Prince George’s East-West Bikeway is an approximately 10-mile bikeway proposed bikeway project extending between Lanham and Lewisdale, which will connect four shared-use paths, the WB&A Trail, the Northeast Branch Trail, the Trolley Trail, and the Northwest Branch Trail, as well as schools, passenger rail stations, and commercial/employment sites. The NPGEWB Feasibility Study represents the first phase of this proposed bikeway. It is focused on a 2-mile segment between River Road near MD 201/Kenilworth Avenue in Riverdale Park and the western terminus of Longbranch Drive at Wildercroft Park in New Carrollton.
This study is funded through a Transportation and Land Use Connections grant from the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments to the Prince George’s County Planning Department. A public charrette will take place on Monday, April 20, 2026, from 6 to 8 pm in the auditorium at the Prince George’s County Department of Parks and Recreation Administration Buildilng located at 6600 Kenilworth Avenue in Riverdale Park, where the proposed alignment and bikeway design options will be presented. The public will have the opportunity to provide input on the alignment and design options.
The NPGEWB Feasibility Study will be completed by June 30, 2026. It is expected the completed study will serve to support additional feasibility studies of the remaining segments of the NPGEWB and/or serve as a basis for additional engineering and design plans.
