13 Station Circulation Study 13

14 Station Circulation Study Analyzed multimodal circulation at five Metrorail Stations Takoma, Addison Road, Anacostia, Minnesota Ave & New Carrollton 14

15 Station Circulation Study Developed recommendations to improve traffic flow & improve safety for all users by minimizing conflicts Four levels: signage, striping, enforcement & infrastructure 15

16 Takoma Metrorail Issues found: Jaywalking from two bus bays to Metro entrance Minimal use of Kiss & Ride lot resulted in conflicts on Cedar St Lack of wayfinding signage Recommendations: 16

17 Anacostia Metrorail Issues found: Jaywalking between Metrorail station and bus bays A E; Patrons walking in busway from Martin Luther King Jr Ave; Intersection blocking/vehicle congestion on Howard Rd. Recommendations: 17
