City Council - Sep 28, 2026
State transportation funding is tight and the 495 interchange at Greenbelt Metro is delayed another year. Council's comment letter presses for Greenbelt Road corridor investment and the Greenbelt East Trail connection.
General - Jul 15, 2026
Federal pandemic relief money is funding pedestrian and bike improvements, bus stop shelters, storm drain work and more — and it all has to be committed by December 2026. The WMATA Trail project is paused waiting on State Highway Administration approval.
City Council - Jan 28, 2026
Council heard how the region's DMVMoves plan would fund major transportation projects, and endorsed the funding proposal at first reading. It matters for Greenbelt because projects must be in the regional plan to win federal money.
