MCDOT Sustainability Policy		Green Government Report on Sustainability
MCDOT recognizes that the County's expanding transportation system has far-reaching impacts. The way our streets are planned, the range of available transportation options, and the way projects are constructed and maintained influence our environment.		Montgomery County’s Department of General Services has released the fiscal year 2019 Montgomery County Green Government Report that highlights MCDOT’s sustainable efforts, including enhancing bicycle mobility, bus commuting and smart parking in County garages.
