The overall goal of the CAST study is to evaluate multi-modal access to the eleven (11) proposed Purple Line Locally
Preferred Alternative (LPA) Stations within Prince George’s County. This report provides an additional piece of the
overall plan for the development of the stations by providing further analysis and recommendations for pedestrian
and bicycle access that was initiated by the Purple Line Bicycle Access and Bicycle Hub Location Study (Toole Study)
completed in June 2010. Providing effective multi-modal access to the stations will be essential to the success of the
Purple Line Light Rail system. A number of development projects and sector planning efforts are currently underway
providing opportunities to implement new bicycle and pedestrian facilities around the stations. This report will
provide additional information to help policy makers, planners and engineers make better decisions as design of the
Purple Line LPA moves forward.
