4 BOWIE STATE UNIVERSITY LINE, ROUTES B21, B22 CROFTON NEW CARROLLTON LINE, ROUTES B29, B31 POINTER RIGE LINE, ROUTE C28 SERVICE AREA Bowie State University (B21, B22), Race Track Road (B22), The Market Place at Belair Center (B22), Crofton Park & Ride Lot (B29, B31), Gateway Center (B29, B31), Covington (B29, B31), Bowie Town Center (B29, B31, C28), Bowie Health Center & Bowie Senior Center (C28), Pointer Ridge (C28), Bowie Park & Ride Lot, New Carrollton station OPTION 1 Restructure Service Instead of operating through to New Carrollton station, all service on these routes (except for B31 trips) would terminate at the Bowie Park & Ride lot and connect there with shuttle service to New Carrollton station via John Hanson Highway operating every minutes. B31 operates in the evening after service has ended on B21, B22, B29, and C28 so it would continue to operate through service between New Carrollton station and Gateway Center via the Bowie Park & Ride lot. Route/Segment Elimination Service on the common routing between the Bowie Park & Ride lot and New Carrollton station now used by B21, B22, and B29 would be discontinued.

Reasons for Change Proposals have been made in three independent studies that routes serving the Bowie Park & Ride lot be converted to a hub-and-spoke configuration. OPTION 2 Restructure Service Routes B21, B22, B29, and C28 would continue to operate through service via the Bowie Park & Ride lot to New Carrollton station. The frequency on each route would be increased during rush periods to every 30 minutes. (Some trips now operate at intervals as wide as every 40 minutes.) Schedules would be coordinated at the Bowie Park & Ride lot to provide an even 10 minute frequency between there and New Carrollton station. Route/Segment Elimination No route segments would be eliminated. Alternative Service Available None needed. Reasons for Change Avoids the need to transfer at the Bowie Park & Ride lot (as in Option 1). Provides close, even intervals of service (every 10 minutes) between there and New Carrollton station. OPTION 3 Restructure Service Eliminate service to Crofton Park & Ride lot on routes B29 and B31. Instead serve Bowie Health Center, Bowie Senior Center, Bowie Town 102 of 125

5 Center, and Gateway Center. Routes B21, B22, B29, and C28 would continue to operate through service via the Bowie Park & Ride lot to New Carrollton station.

Schedules would be coordinated at the Bowie Park & Ride lot to provide an even 10 minute frequency between there and New Carrollton station. Route/Segment Elimination Segment between Gateway Center and Crofton Park & Ride lot eliminated. Alternative Service Available Improved coordination at Bowie Park & Ride lot offers 10 minute peak period frequency to New Carrollton, instead of four morning and three evening trips from Crofton Park & Ride. Reasons for Change Shifts service away from low usage Crofton Park & Ride lot to better serve activity centers in Bowie. Avoids the need to transfer at the Bowie Park & Ride lot (as in Option 1). Provides close, even intervals of service (every 10 minutes) between there and New Carrollton station. 103 of 125

Extend the westerly (Rt. 1) leg of L12 south to College Park station, providing a connection to the University of Maryland requested by the City of Laurel. Streamline the routing in Laurel, with the local carrier Central Maryland Regional Transit (CMRT) providing the neighborhood service and Metrobus providing the connections linking Laurel with Metrorail and with Washington-area regional service.
