The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is completing the design of the remaining sections of the Metropolitan Branch Trail (MBT). The latest section being designed connects the Fort Totten Metro Station to the Takoma neighborhood in NW Washington, DC. The preliminary design for this section was completed in 2016. DDOT with its consultant team is currently completing the final design of this section, which is scheduled to be completed by winter 2020. The key elements of the MBT under design include:
– New off-street and on-street trail segments
– Traffic calming features
– Storm water and low-impact development
– Traffic signals & Lighting
