This document is a Feasibility and Design Study for a segment of the planned Chesapeake Beach Rail Trail in the Town of Upper Marlboro, a municipality located in Prince George’s County, Maryland (Planning Area 79, Councilmanic District 9). In Spring 2023, the Town of Upper Marlboro applied to the Prince George’s County Planning Department’s Planning Assistance to Municipalities and Communities (PAMC) program to fund the trail feasibility study. PAMC funding was approved by the Prince George’s County Planning Board on June 22, 2023, and the project kicked off August 24, 2023. The study documents existing conditions of potential trail alignments; explores trail alternatives and identifies their opportunities and challenges; and anticipates logistical and financial requirements. This feasibility study is consistent with the strategies adopted in the 2014 Plan 2035 Approved General Plan and the 2013 Approved Subregion 6 Master Plan.
