The National Capital Region Transportation Planning Board (TPB) recently approved $5.1 million for the Frederick and Pennsylvania Line Trail.
Yesterday, the National Capital Region Transportation Planning Board (TPB) approved approximately $5.1 million dollars in federal funding toward construction of the Frederick and Pennsylvania Line (F&PL) Trail in Frederick County, Maryland.
The project will be funded by the TPB’s Maryland portion of the Transportation Alternatives Set-Aside (TA Set-Aside) Program, which supports small-scale projects such as pedestrian and bicycle facilities, trails, safe routes to school (SRTS) projects, and other community improvements.
The F&PL project will include the construction of a 10-foot-wide asphalt trail running 1.79 miles from Monocacy Boulevard in the City of Frederick to Fountain Rock Nature Center in Walkersville, Maryland. The trail will have access to a Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) park and ride lot with bicycle parking and local Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) commuter bus transit.
The project also constructs a link in the National Capital Trail Network, a 1,400-mile system of trails that will connect the entire region when completed.
