Participant Guide: Greater Washington 2050 Coalition


The Envision Participant Guide provides an in-depth exploration of the opportunities and challenges which may shape the future of Prince George’s County.

In today’s excerpt, we take a look at a few of the goals set by the Greater Washington 2050 Coalition.

The Greater Washington 2050 Coalition brought together leaders from across the region to lay the foundation for the kind of region everyone in the District of Columbia and surrounding counties “want to enjoy in the years to come.” The coalition’s conclusion was “To shape our future and to maintain and improve our quality of life, this region deserves bold action, not business as usual.”

Land Use: Enhance established neighborhoods with compact, walkable, and transit-oriented, mixed-use development and with the preservation of open space, farmland, and environmental resource land in rural areas.

Transportation: Provide a broad range of choices to maximize accessibility and affordability to everyone and to minimize reliance on single-occupancy automobile use; maximize community connectivity and walkability, while minimizing ecological harm.
