M-83 is key to a balanced transportation network in Upcounty, which includes transit. Transit is not the magic pill for all Upcounty mobility issues.
Upcounty must have the mobility options that is enjoyed by others in the County. The efforts to destroy this balance with misinformation is
Cherian Eapen Clarksburg MD 20871 unfortunate.
The associated infrastructure that was promised and accounted for on the master plan needs to built. Much of the development in Northern MOCO
was approved and determined as feasible because the roads were going to be expanded (Mid County, Corridor Cities, etc.) and now all of the people
are moving up here and we're becoming land locked. The traffic in Clarksburg since 2004 when we moved in has become border line unbearable. The
increase in commute time will eventually begin to hurt our home values and thus decrease tax assessments. For once, follow through and execute on
the Master Plan as was previously agreed upon or else stop wasting the ink that was used to develop it. Thank you for your attention and
Leroy Haynes Clarksburg MD 20871 consideration!!
Stephen Mullen Clarksburg MD 20871 Ease traffic congestion on 270 and 355
Jeff Escher Clarksburg MD 20871 Critical to reduce traffic congestion on 270. Part of master plan and Clarksburg was built with this road as a critical artery.
The county needs to stand behind and FOLLOW THROUGH with the Master Plan that's been in place for 50 years. This is what home buyers look at and
Donna Pfeiffer Clarksburg MD 20871 rely on. Clarksburg NEEDS M-83 Alternative 9 in order to deal with our continued growth.
Nicholas Tsahalis Clarksburg MD 20871 The congestion in the area has my family and I considering moving!
Qi Duan Bethesda MD 20892 This is extremely important for me to commute every day.
The traffic is getting worse as more houses are being built. We need another road as an outlet. We need more room so we are not stuck waiting 15
Batuoc Nguyen Clarksburg MD 20871 minutes to drive 2 miles to our home.
Many resident purchased homes due to the fact that this road was going in. There will always be auto traffic and the more asundery roads there are the
Elizabeth Forrest Clarksburg MD 20871 better traffic will flow
Bhagawoti
Adhikari Clarksburg MD 20871 The current traffic from Route 27 is horrible and we need a better traffic route.
We have been waiting a long time for relief to the traffic congestion. A growing population is compounding the problem. There have to be other
Linda Eskay Clarksburg MD 20871 alternatives besides 355 and 270, which are already overburdened.Thank you
Nicole Graves Clarksburg MD 20871 The traffic in our area is ridiculous. We need more road options like Mid-County Highway to ease congestion.
vinay gandla Clarksburg MD 20871 I am witness to rapid deterioration of the transportation in my area and the only hope I see is M-83.
Subhash S Bethesda MD 20813 I am tried of 270 to reach the Rockville station . I drive a lot and my community will need this Highway

Gayathri I travel between Clarksburg and Rockville everyday and have 2 small kids to get back to. I am always struck on I-270 traffic during office hours which
Subramanian Clarksburg MD 20871 makes it difficult and expensive for me since I have to send them to after-care becaus eI am not able to get back on time.

Martinez Martinez Clarksburg MD 20871 We need less traffic jams!!

The existing RT 27 by itself is not equipped to handle all the traffic that is increasing day by day because of all the new and upcoming developments on
Angana Desai Clarksburg MD 20871 Rt 27. Our work life quality is being highly affected to due to all the traffic.
William Freburger North Bethesda MD 20852 I am tired of needlessly spending extra hours of everyday on my commute. I want to spend time with my family.
Prasanth
Bondalapati Germantown MD 20874 I work in DC and it takes 100 Minutes every day to go to work. This new route will help us for a faster commute.
Kelly Alvarez Clarksburg MD 20871 We need this road!
juan farias Clarksburg MD 20871 alleviate traffic coming/going from upper montgomery county and frederick/carroll counties
Chun Cheng clarksburg MD 20871 Traffic is terriable
Sadok Rouai Clarksburg MD 20871 I commute every day to shady grove metro station
Donna Griffith Clarksburg MD 20871 I am an Arora Hills resident and have to deal with the growing congestion daily.
This will improve my quality of life by getting back and forth to work and school. Right now travel time is important to me and I will be willing to pay a
toll to connect to the ICC. Also, with our development growing more and I am working in Silver Spring this will reduce the travel pattern. On route 27,
Barbara Johnson Clarksburg MD 20871 you cannot extend the lanes; therefore, something else has to be done in regards to travel time.

The road is vital to easing the congestion and my family's ability to get to work. It is ridiculous how the County Council is re-writing the plans
considering our new developments were built with these infrastructure improvement in mind. Please stop focusing only on the southern part of the
Matt Kavanagh Clarksburg MD 20871 county (and in this instance, Gaithersburg) and provide us with what was promised! This is turning into a bait and switch!
Amit Pandya Clarksburg MD 20871 Daily travel is time consuming due to trafic from Clarksburg to Shady Grove Metro Station.
Rajagopala
Venkatappa Clarksburg MD 20871 Traffic congestion is significantly increased.
Yongling Xin Clarksburg MD 20871 shorten commute time
Brian Donlon Clarksburg MD 20871 The roads in Clarksburg need to be in line with the number of people and shops coming here.
Avadesh Gulati Clarksburg MD 20871 I live in clarksburg and the traffic on Rt. 27 would be greatly decreased by the construction of this road.
Linda Hollenberg Clarksburg MD 20871 Would help my drive to work everyday
Anne Scott Clarksburg MD 20871 I live in Arora Hills and this is crucial for speeding up my commute time. My commute time = time with my family and time for myself.
I commute to DC everyday and accessibility to 270 is very congested. In order to reduce carbon footprint, we must have a smoother transportation
Samit Bhatt Clarksburg MD 20871 infrastructure.
Xibao Liu Clarksburg MD 20871 traffic
With the growth of Arora Hills and Clarksburg Village, we need to infrastructure to alleviate the burden on Ridge Road. Don't approve the Outlet Malls
Frank Griffith Clarksburg MD 20871 and then bottleneck the traffic. Please approve the Mid-County Extension.

I bought a home in Clarksburg, Montgomery County, knowing that the community would be a great fit for my family and that in the near future there
Colby James Clarksburg MD 20871 would be traffic relief as both my husband and I commute south for work. The Clarksburg area is continuing to grow at a rapid pace!
I live in Clarksburg and work at Bethesda. The traffic more and more become a important problem for me. I have to take more time to drive through Rt
Joe Zhang Clarksburg MD 20871 27, I strongly want the situation can be improved soon.
I routinely commute to the shady grove metro area which is becoming increasing difficult because of the traffic on I-270. Having this direct route would
terry mcguire clarksburg MD 20871 be extremely productive and help to alleviate the congestion on I-270.
With heavy population inflow to clarksburg area, this alternative to 270 & 355 will help us (clarksburg/Damascus) residents get to metro, and to
Rockville in reasonable amount of time. 270 will have heavy inflow from up north, and 355 is not viable alternative for getting to Rockville area. We
Vamsi Motaparthy Clarksburg MD 20871 really need this to continue to live and grow in Clarksburg.
Monica Buhl Clarksburg MD 20871 Traffic relief on Rt 27 and I-270
Developers are greedy to develop more properties without the consideration of the main routes like MD 27 being so crowded at peak hours. That is the
only bottleneck for thousands of residents. This highway will ease the congestion on 270 as well which is useful for people commuting from Frederick
Arun I Clarksburg MD 20871 and Urbana as well.
The proposed highway will surely help to reduce traffic congestion on route 27, which is a immediate need for Clarksburg Neighborhood. During peak
Jasvinder Singh Clarksburg MD 20871 hours it takes more than 15 minutes to travel only for 3 miles on 27.
Prashant Sharma Clarksburg MD 20871 The area has flood of news houses and traffic lines are choked especially during the rush hour. There should be an alternative.

UPCOUNTY, INCLUDING CLARKSBURG, IS THE FASTEST GROWING AREA IN MONTGOMERY COUNTY. THE POPULATION AND NEW SCHOOL
CONSTRUCTION IS INCREASING YEARLY AND IS ALREADY CONGESTED AND OVERCROWDED. PLEASE DON'T FORGET THAT THESE ARE THE SAME AREAS
THAT THE COUNTY POWERS THAT BE HAVE APPROVED FOR THIS DESINTY AND ARE WILLING TO ACCEPT THE REVENUE ASSOCIATED WITH THE PERMIT
FEES AND IMPROVED TAX BASE. DON'T LEAVE US WITH SUB-STANDARD ROAD SYSTEMS UNABLE TO CARRY THE LOAD OF THESE NEW RESIDENTS AND
CONSTITUENTS. CURRENTLY WE ARE GETTING A GLIMPSE OF THE FUTURE. WE HAVE MASSIVE POPULATION INCREASES IN CLARKSBURG VILLAGE,
CLARKSBURG TOWN CENTER AND AURORA HILLS WITH NEW FOUR LANE ROADS (SNOWDEN FARM PARKWAY, LITTLE SENECA PARKWAY) FEEDING INTO
TWO LANE ROADS (RTE. 27- RIDGE RD/ RTE 355- N. FREDERICK RD.) AND NO IDEA OF HOW THEY WILL ACCOMMODATE THIS INCREASED FLOW.
CHRISTOPHER SHOULDN'T ADEQUATE ROAD SYSTEMS BE IN PLACE PRIOR TO THE POPULATION INCREASE? PLEASE DON'T REMOVE ANOTHER VIABLE ROADWAY FOR
FORREST CLARKSBURG MD 20871 UPCOUNTY RESIDENTS TO USE INSTEAD
The current roadways are becoming bottleneck for commuters and transit options cant help enough. We need this change to improve my daily life as
Vivek Gupta Clarksburg MD 20871 well as that of my neighbors.
This is important to my community to help relieve the traffic and congestion on Route 27 as well as making it easier to get to the Metro and points

I work at Rockville and if one goes on 355 my office is about 14 miles. But the journey has not taken less than 50 minutes on any day. There is so much
traffic all the time. if I take 270 it adds an other 4 extra miles to my journey and the travel time is even higher. It is high time the eastern side of 270 gets
the same needed roads as what the western side has been having through little Seneca highway. it is not just Clarksburg. Clarksburg, Damascus, cedar

The Planning Department staff recommended unfunded BRT transit network will have capital costs in billions of dollars and annual operating costs in
millions of dollars and has many implementation challenges. Despite what the opponents to M-83 argue, even if it is to get on the road, the BRT system
can be best expected to provide negligible commute travel mode shifts. This staff recommended alternative for the master plan alignment Alt 9A will
not provide any congestion relief for Clarksburg and adjacent communities since a significant percentage of commuters will continue to drive own their
own. The proposed Corridor Cities Transitway (CCT; now as a BRT) which was supposed to serve Clarksburg is not even on track to get to Clarksburg
with current funding only to continue CCT preliminary study between Shady Grove Metro and Metropolitan Grove (Phase1). The Phase 2 will only get

I'd rather have the M-83 than the CCT/BRT. Based on information put together by the county, the CCT/BRT line will cost over $800 million and take 49

We moved to Brink Road and live in a community w/ 2 acre minimum zoning so that we can enjoy "greenspace", peace and quiet. If you widen Brink

Dear Mr. Leggett and County Council Members, I am writing to express my support of building M-83. The local traffic has become a daily frustration,
with no relief in sight within a reasonable time frame. Thousands of homes were built based upon the availability of M-83 and a Corridor City
Transitway. Both are needed. The CCT (or new incarnation, BRT) barely exists on paper, is decades away and will not serve many of our needs. Our
communities were built around the long-planned M-83 and it is our only near-term hope for an effective transportation system. Please proceed with
Dan Chronopoulos Damascus MD 20872 this essential part of our upcounty transportation system. Thank you,
I am signing because when we purchased our home in Goshen estates,we did extensive research into any possibility of expansion of roads and
additional construction around our property and surrounding area. There was nothing on record for any additions other than the original master

This is determental to our standard of living in Clarksburg. When we considered moving to Clarksburg from Columbia in 2005, we were worried about
the traffic congestion in Montgomery County but we were assured and only decided to proceed after seeing the county approved Clarksburg master

Kristin Ramm Clarksburg MD 20871 Traffic is out of control in Clarksburg...one way in and one way out...way too many homes and not enough roads...please help us!!!
This highway has been in the master plan since before I moved here in 1971. Developers "destrou", make their millions, contribute to their legislative
James Quinn Damascus MD 20872 cronies, and move on. Those of us left here just sit in traffic. Build the damn highway. It is time!
Up county concerns are as critical as down county, and even more so as our officials have a change to improve quality of life, air quality and the
Paul Scuderi Damascus MD 20872 county's tax base for years to come if they make sound decisions now c
Upcounty needs should not be ignored any longer. As the fastest growing community in the County the road infrastructure must begin to
Brett Hyman Clarksburg MD 20871 accommodate the rapid growth.
There needs to be an alternative to I270. West of I270 has Great Seneca Parkway. East of I270 has Snowdon Farm Parkway and Mid County Highway.
M-83 will connect them to complete the alternative. It has been stymied by special interest groups causing growing hardship to those who live

Dear Councilmember, The UpCounty needs M83. Please support adding the two lane option to the study of alternatives for M83. We need you to

Marcia Lightsey-
Tivoli Germantown MD 20874 We need M-83 ASAP! The county in upcounty MoCo can be reduced with the addition of M-83! The master plan should be adhered to and not ignored!

Tom Newton Gaithersburg MD 20878 I strongly support Option 9A for the Mid-County Highway. But only if there are bike and pedestrian facilities along the route.
It is important to have the infrastructure needed and honor your commitments. I bought a house based on the master plan, I have paid my dues, please
Sasha Haynes Clarksburg MD 20871 don't change the plan
This highway is strategic for those living upcounty, especially with the amount of traffic on 270 and 355 during rush hours. Please do not take this off

Sunil Lingayat Boyds MD 20841 I am convinced we need alternative north/south travel alternatives and will reduce congestion on 270 and 355.
If BRT becomes a reality, it should be named after the politicians that pushed it through in order to memorialize their failure. No one will ride it from Up
County (pay to ride a bus 49 minutes to get from a Clarksburg parking lot to Shady Grove Metro so that you can start the rest of your commute? Good
Walter Chang clarksburg MD 20871 luck with that...)Stop wasting time, and build the thing that will work: M83/Alt 9A!

You need to keep your word. When the development of Clarksburg started that is what was promised to us residents. The Planning Board and Elected
Jaya Pandey Clarksburg MD 20871 Officials need to stick to their word! Our tax dollars should be used to good use. Keep the original plan, as well as your word.

I am signing to support the construction of the Alternative 9A Master Plan Alignment of Mid-County Highway (M-83) between Ridge Road (MD 27) and
Narsa Goud Kola Washington MD 20019 Montgomery Village Avenue.
Dear Mr. Leggett and County Council Members, I am writing to express my support of building M-83. The local traffic has become a daily frustration,
with no relief in sight within a reasonable time frame. Thousands of homes were built based upon the availability of M-83 and a Corridor City
Transitway. Both are needed. The CCT (or new incarnation, BRT) barely exists on paper, is decades away and will not serve many of our needs. Our
communities were built around the long-planned M-83 and it is our only near-term hope for an effective transportation system. Please proceed with
Lindsey Stark Damascus MD 20872 this essential part of our upcounty transportation system. Thank you,
Eugene Moxley Gaithersburg MD 20882 I think that M-83 would be a great improvement to our county. This is tax money well spent.

Right now, the biggest problem the residents of Clarksburg Village face is the traffic congestion between MD-355 and Rt 27 Intersection all the way up
to MD-355/Little Seneca Park way and beyond. With all the new construction that happened recently, relieving us from this congestion will make it

Manish Khare Clarksburg MD 20871 I strongly believe that my and my kids future is greatly impacted by this setup.
M-83 was and is a very important highway to Upcounty residents. It represents a clear alternative to the daily heavy congestion of traffic on I-270 in the

Michael Opincar Clarksburg MD 20871 i live in upcounty and we need M-83
Jessica Kramer Clarksburg MD 20871 Traffic is awful and congested and building keeps continuing. Alternatives are absolutely a necessity in this area.

There is inappropriate infrastructure for commuters through the Clarksburg, MD area. There was supposed to be a bypass for 355 according to the

The congestion north of Rockville and Gaithersburg has only gotten worse in the past 7-8 years. I have lived in Germantown since 1994 and have seen
how 270 has become ever more clogged and a parking lot during peak hours.The M-83 is a sound alternative to provide relief from 270 to upcounty
residents. It has been in the master plan for a long time and it is now time to build it and not change plans. The Montgomery County Department of
Transportation (MCDOT) Midcounty Corridor Study (MCS) Draft Environmental Effects Report (DEER) clearly documents that M-83 Alternative 9
provides the highest transportation effectiveness among all alternatives considered.I urge you to support this and help Mont County remain a viable
Manjit Singh Germantown MD 20875 community for both residents and businesses.Thank you.Manjit
vikas kapoor Gaithersburg MD 20882 Building this road is crucial to a viable upper Montgomery County.
We need to consider other ways to improve traffic, if growth is to continue. The infrastructure, should be approved and completed to help with jobs,
access, and keep adding to alternatives, to driving and metro. Those who live here need to be heard, and the council needs to listen and not make
LJ Belsito Clarksburg MD 20871 decisions without full transparency.

Debra Thompson Clarksburg MD 20871 Transportation options especially roads are neccisary with the number of people now populating the northern part of the county. Stick to the plan!

I live in Damascus, work in Gaithersburg and I find the volume of traffic unacceptable. Smart growth is not "they come and then we will build it" - the

(27, 124, Brink, etc) roads have been beyond capacity for years. Fix it now and complete M-83 per the approved plans. The studies are completed, the

This is sorely needed and has been for years!. Traffic is getting worse every day. Instead of using our tax money to fund an immigration attorney, lets
use it for something that will benefit everyone, the M-83 road. I don't know where the brains are on the council.....throwing money away that will
make our county less safe. I am afraid to go out at night as it is now. Do something useful with the tax money and DO NOT eliminate the M-83 from the

There is too much traffic on 355. My daughter was involved in an accident at the intersection of 355 and West Old Baltimore Rd. The traffic contributed

Dolores Davis Clarksburg MD 20871 We already have enough traffic congestion here. With all of the building still going on, it will only get worse.

Steven Niedelman Boyds MD 20841 infrastructure to meet the needs of the residents who have invested in their homes and confidence of the county to address their needs
Most county councils base many decisions about various infrastructure changes on where they themselves live and work. Hence, they do not have any
way of "feeling" what local residents and commuters go through on a daily basis. Their decisions are made based on what impacts them directly. I
might suggest that the council members try living in the Clarksburg or other impacted area to get a real heartfelt feel of what their constituents go
through on a daily basis, prior to making an "informed" decision about M-83. I am sure they would have different feeling then! KEEP M-83 IN THE

Schwartzback Ijamsville MD 21754 Congestion north - south 270355

I live 12 miles from my job and am forced to either take 270 or 355 to my job each day. This commute on a weekend takes approximately 25-30
minutes. Monday through Friday it takes me an average of 2 hours each way, totaling 4 hours of sitting in my car each and every day. I have a 2 year old
child who I am away from 12 hours per day, instead of 9 hours due simply to the extreme congestion in our area. If there is rain, my commute can be
upwards of 3 hours each way. I am beyond frustrated and considering moving out of the area simply due to the traffic in this area. I have lived here all
Cheryl Nugent Monrovia MD 21770 41 years and find it unbelievable that our government has not assisted with this issue yet. PLEASE HELP!!!!
The I 270 corridor is very slow because of the density of traffic during peak rush hours. If there is any disruption in that flow then #355 a two lane road
Mary Schmidt Ijamsville MD 21754 is immediately over run. Most traffic could be handled inside...and not necessary on I 270...Check out Clarksburg
