The Martin Steet shared-use path project provides a 1,150-foot long, 10-foot-wide paved pathway through a mature wooded area, connecting Arcola Avenue to Henderson Avenue in Silver Spring. This path will include 2-foot-wide buffers on either side and two local street crossings. Stormwater improvements such as rain gardens, educational stations regarding native trees and plants, and lighting will be determined by the landscape evaluation. The connectivity, access to natural amenities and related improvements will provide quality of life enhancements for County residents.
