According to Governor Hogan's Stay at Home directive today, biking for commuting to essential jobs and for exercise, while observing social distancing recommendations, is allowed. We will continue to advocate for this.
We’re asking you to report dangerous street conditions using the OurStreets App.
We’re advocating BCDOT turn on default pedestrian crossings at intersections near grocers, hospitals, parks, and food distribution centers so high volumes of people don’t have to push the same buttons to cross the street.
We’re advocating for BCDOT study of additional park and neighborhood road closures to create space for social distancing where sidewalks are narrow and lots of people are walking or biking for transportation or recreation.
