| Abstract | Significant transportation planning for Baltimore was begun in the early I960 ' s with an analysis of the long range and specific urban transportation requirements for the region. During the late 1960's and early 1970 ' s major transportation planning and design efforts continued through a series of studies and conceptual and preliminary engineering design projects, which resulted in the formulation of a Phase I Plan for rapid transit development as well as detailed preliminary engineering designs, cost estimates and implementation schedules for the Phase I rapid transit system. This long term planning and preliminary design process was accomplished between 1962 and the end of 1973, and was made possible by continuous leadership, encouragement, financing, and action by State, Local and Federal governments, and by public support through the Public Hearing process. |
