Preliminary Central Avenue Blue/Silver Line Sector Plan and Sectional Map Amendment

The 2025 Preliminary Central Avenue-Blue/Silver Line Sector Plan and Sectional Map Amendment proposes a new sector plan for parts of Planning Areas 72, 75A, and 75B. Upon approval, it will fully replace the 2008 Approved Transit District Development Plan for the Capitol Heights Transit District Overlay Zone. Additionally, this plan will amend portions of the 2014 Plan Prince George’s 2035 Approved General Plan (Plan 2035) and other relevant countywide functional master plans.

Developed between May 2023 and August 2025 with significant public input, including meetings and feedback from residents, property owners, business owners, public agencies, and stakeholders, the plan sets a long-term vision for the Central Avenue-Blue/Silver Line area. It defines goals, policies, and strategies through targeted focus areas and the eight planning elements outlined in Plan 2035. A Proposed Sectional Map Amendment accompanies the draft, recommending zoning changes for implementation.

The plan prioritizes directing residential growth to Plan 2035-designated Centers and neighborhood-serving retail areas. It aims to promote transit-oriented, pedestrian-friendly development while preserving the natural environment. The implementation framework provides a clear timeline, identifies key partnerships and funding sources, and outlines action items to guide development over the next 20 years
