Maryland State & County Representatives: Fund Infrastructure Improvement of Shady Grove Metro Sta...

I urge my elected state and county representatives to seek and secure the necessary funding to improve the infrastructure of Shady Grove Metro Station, in line with recent WMATA capacity studies, with current and future growth of the surrounding area, and with growing use of this station as a major commuting hub in the region. Public safety, security, and overall smart growth demand such investment in this resource.

Why is this important?

Do you commute through Shady Grove Metro Station? Have you experienced its crowded -- and dangerous -- trains and platforms during rush hours? Do you ask yourself how you could advocate for positive change to this important public resource? Here's your opportunity! Sign this petition to let your elected state and county representatives know that you want them to seek and secure the necessary funding to improve the infrastructure of Shady Grove Metro Station, based on the September 2015 capacity study completed by WMATA (http://www.wmata.com/pdfs/planning/Shady_Grove_Final_Report_09-25-2015_with_Appendices.pdf), the Shady Grove Sector plan, (http://www.montgomeryplanning.org/community/shadygrove/), and the overall growth in Montgomery County and surrounding areas. Improving the infrastructure of Shady Grove Station will improve public safety, security, and smart growth.
