I like the other poster's idea about M-83, which would connect Clarksburg to Shady Grove Metro and/or running a BRT (or buses) directly down (0-2 stops along a direct route would be fine).  Instead, what we are offered is the CCT, which twists and loops its way through Germantown, Gaithersburg, and Rockville and is ultimately used to justify development.

As for my preferences regarding "Science City", I prefer low density development in accordance with the donor's intent.  Then there would be no need to run a BRT through that neighorhood.[/quote]

M-83 (the highway project from Montgomery Village to Clarksburg) and the CCT (the bus rapid transit project from Shady Grove Metro to Metropolitan Grove in Gaithersburg) are not competing projects. The planning is different, the funding is different, and the agency in charge is different.

Also, M-83 would not connect Clarksburg to Shady Grove Metro. M-83 is supposed to be an alternative to 270 and 355.[/quote]
