As part of the 60% design process, we are asking for community members to complete this survey which asks questions about safety and use:
- Safety: How safe do you feel traveling on Washington Street?
Use: How often and for what purpose do you travel along Washington Street?
If you haven't submitted a survey response yet, please do so by March 28.
We will use the information gathered in this survey to finalize the 60% design plans.

60% Design Phase Starting for Washington Street
Published: December 2024
As of Fall 2024, we are in the process of developing 60% design plans for this project.
Developing the 60% design plans involves:
- Conducting field work, collecting data, and refining the 30% designs. We will be conducting topographical surveys of intersections, sign inventory, and signalized equipment inventory. This work will inform the 60% design plans.
- Connecting with community members to provide updates, collect feedback, and answer questions. We will be attending community meeting and events in January & February to:
- Share project information. Update community members about the status of the project and share the most up-to-date information about the project.
- Collect community feedback. Gather community feedback on how community members use Washington St and how safe they feel via this survey. We will use the survey data to finalize the 60% design plans.
- Answer questions. Provide opportunities, both in-person and virtual, to answer questions and note down community concerns. We will document questions and concerns raised by community members. We will use this information to update the FAQ section of the Streets of Baltimore page. If community members raise concerns that we are able to address at this stage of the project we will address those concerns.
New individual project pages for Washington St and Wolfe St
Published: December 2024
In 2023 DOT completed the Wolfe-Washington Bikeway Study. The completion of this study included the development of 30% design plans for both Washington Street and Wolfe Street.
As we advance with design and implementation, we separated the project into two distinct projects. Moving forward, this Streets of Baltimore project page will be for the Washington Street Bikeway & Traffic Calming project.
In the coming months, we will develop a separate project page for the Wolfe Street Traffic Calming project and notify this project page when it is live.
If you have any questions, please submit those in the “Questions & Comments” box at the bottom of the project page. Thank you!
