This document presents concepts for promoting more context-sensitive design along the Star-Spangled Banner Scenic Byway (SSBSB) Corridor in southeastern Prince George’s County as both public improvements to roadways and private development along these roadways occur. Many of the concepts, particularly related to solutions for enhancing transportation safety while maintaining rural character, were presented and refined through a series of interactive public meetings held in southeastern Prince George’s County between November 2010 and the present. A visual preference survey was administered in March 2011 to a group of more than 70 residents and stakeholders to gauge interest in various building styles and site layouts for new development outside of the scenic byway’s right-of-way. A buildout analysis of the remaining existing residential dwelling units under current regulations and site conditions was completed, and several village development explorations were generated from the visual survey results. These scenarios are presented in a separate document, The Rural Villages Study.
