Maple Lawn Farms is Howard County’s first Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND) development.
Maple Lawn Farms is Howard County’s first Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND) development. As such it posed a number of challenges. Two significant challenges included: how to show agencies that the project could be built with smaller, narrower roads; and that two major multi-lane roundabouts along MD 216 could co-exist with two other State roundabouts already in operation. Working closely with stakeholders, The Traffic Group successfully designed a road system and two additional roundabouts along MD 216 (from US 29 westerly to the second entrance to Maple Lawn Farms) that efficiently serve the development today.
