    Exiting Towson university campus by bike to travel north on Bosley is a dangerous left-hand turn. Most bike users will ride on the sidewalk. There is a significant number of students who need to walk on the same sidewalks as they move from campus to their apartments in downtown towson.

    Towsontown blvd has a problem with high-speed aggressive drivers competing with bike traffic. Most bike users are intimidated by riding conditions on this roadway.

    One of the highest injury intersections in the City for ped/bike crashes. City RoW but signal is controlled by SHA. Needs a No Right turn on red

    Crossing this intersection while walking or biking usually with many children is dangerous. There are two unsupported turn lane walkways that are yields, NO ONE STOPS better signage highlighted notification to SLOW down MD Law for Pedestrians. It appears no attention has been given to Ocean City where there is a plethora of unfamiliar walkers and bikers. I own an Condo on 62nd Street so transverse this area alot. This is a very busy area with 2 lanes of traffic turning in with additional lanes from both sides the one corner also has a public tennis court. I can't believe no attention has been given to Ocean City in the high walking area report. A survey should be done. Specifically for OC

    Very difficult for pedestrians and cyclists to cross Charles. There is a bus stop on one side and hospital on other, but difficult to safely cross the road between the two. A pedestrian light or even just road lines or traffic calming for speeders could help

    This is an issue state wide…shoulders that are also used as bike routes need to be cleaned by street sweepers. Only a fraction of a shoulder is rideable because of various types of debris which regularly squeezes cyclist into vehicle lanes. Also, you could target roads using heat maps to determine the most frequently used roads.

    Very narrow and old bridge. Is it safe? Would be great to expand the bridge and make pedestrian crossing on both sides.

    If people are not stopping for the HAWK then the elevation of the crossing sign probably will not help. Hopefully, SHA is monitoring this for compliance.

    This would connect the Levee trail (which dead ends at Rhode Island) to the NW branch. and shorten the East Coast Greenway!

    This would connect the NW Branch Trail to the Mall at PG and Hyattsville Crossing - places that are otherwise very hard to access if you are not in a car or truck!

    This is the gateway to Maryland, Mount Rainier, and the Arts District leading all the way to College Park, not just another stretch of highway! These blocks are calling for imaginative solutions to make pedestrians safer and more comfortable, and bolster economic development! Maybe a soft pedestrian mall, a separate bike and pedestrian path, or solutions to slow down traffic?
