The joint public hearing is part of a minor plan amendment process which will lead to revisions of specific recommendations contained in the transportation elements of the 1990 Approved Largo-Lottsford Master Plan and the 1993 Approved Landover and Vicinity Master Plan. This minor amendment will not revise the zoning and land use policies in effect in the
MD 202 Corridor or any other elements contained in these master plans. Specifically, this minor amendment proposes:

The conversion of the I-95/I-495/Arena Drive interchange to full-time operation (the current master plans only allow traffic operations at this interchange in connection with special events at FedEx Field or the Capital Centre).

The deletion of the MD 202/Lottsford Road interchange in favor of an at-grade intersection (the current master plans show a modified diamond interchange at this location).

The deletion of the I-95/I-495/Campus Way interchange in favor of retaining an overpass, with no access to the Capital Beltway, at this location (the current master plans show a partial interchange with ramps to and from the north at this location).

For further information, please contact the project planners, Tom Masog (Transportation) at 301-952-5216 or Wendy Irminger (Community Planning) at 301-952-3572.
