Welcome

To connect communities in Prince George's and
Montgomery counties, the Maryland Transit
Administration is studying a new east-west high
capacity transit line. As part of Governor O'Malley's
"Smart, Green & Growing" initiative, the Purple Line
would provide additional transportation capacity
in the congested corridor between New Carrollton and Bethesda; provide faster, more
reliable connections between existing Metro, MARC and Amtrak stations; and support
economic development in both counties. This website is your source for current project facts and figures, as well as your way to participate in the study process.
