Metro invites public to comment on proposed joint development at College Park Station
Metro is inviting the public to provide feedback on proposed changes to transit facilities on the east side of the College Park Metrorail Station as part of a proposed transit-oriented joint development project.

The plan includes removing the approximately five acre surface commuter lot on the east side of the station. In anticipation of this project, the State of Maryland and Prince George's County financed the construction of the 1,290-space Park & Ride garage that opened in 2005 to replace and expand the number of spaces that would be displaced from the proposed project.
Feedback collected from the public about this proposal will be provided to WMATA's Board of Directors for final review and approval. If this project is approved, construction is projected to begin in 2018.
