2009 Montgomery County Highway Mobility Report

This report analyzes current and future transportation trends and congestion levels in Montgomery County, Maryland. It finds that many road intersections currently exceed congestion standards based on critical lane volume analyses. Arterial travel times and speeds are also decreasing, with many corridors experiencing congestion. While vehicle miles traveled have increased, use of alternative transportation like walking, biking, and public transit is also rising. The report predicts that congestion levels will continue to worsen if no actions are taken.
