Transit as solution to growth gridlock in Maryland region

A Maryland growth study argues roads cannot keep pace with dispersed development. Commuters like Alan Golombek rely on park ride and express rail to reach Washington and Arlington, while planners push mass transit, car pools, and private partnerships to reduce car use and ease congestion. Officials warn without transit shifts, traffic will worsen, especially in fast growing counties and rural areas around St. Mary’s and Calvert.

Suburban Job Growth Expands From Baltimore to Southern Maryland

Maryland planners expect a continuing move of jobs from cities to suburbs with Montgomery and Prince George’s counties leading 1995 figures and Calvert Charles St. Mary’s poised for high growth by 2020. Navy base consolidation at Patuxent may add 7,000 spinoff jobs. Frederick area rebounds on transport links and proximity to markets.

Suburban sprawl linked to urban decay in Maryland

Maryland communities face social costs as suburbanization drains cities like Baltimore of residents and tax bases. Officials warn of rising poverty, crime, and blight, with 10,000 residents leaving annually and the city’s population dropping from 905,000 in 1970 to 690,000, projections showing 671,000 by 2020. Local leaders cite widening gaps between haves and have-nots and increased strain on services such as the Frederick Rescue Mission amid a 20 percent rise in people seeking aid this year.
