Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration TSM&O I-695, I-70, and US 29

Multimodal Transportation Project
TSM&O I-695, I-70, and US 29

Rossi Group supported the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) by providing transportation planning and concept development services for a potential project aimed at implementing Transportation Systems Management & Operations (TSM&O) strategies.

The project focused on evaluating corridor improvements within the existing right-of-way of a 16-mile commuter route in Howard County. This route extends from I-70 at MD 32, east to US 29, and south to MD 100, terminating at I-95.

Our contributions included:

  • Project scoping and preparation of a Needs Study
  • Development of purpose and need statement
  • Alternatives development and evaluation
  • Recommendation of the preferred alternative

Rossi Group’s efforts helped identify feasible, efficient strategies to optimize traffic flow and enhance commuter reliability while maintaining alignment with MDOT SHA’s operational goals.
