 New...and now online!
TRAFFIC MITIGATION PLAN & ANNUAL REPORT FILING SYSTEM

Now it’s even easier to comply with traffic mitigation requirements for employers in Montgomery County. Employers with 25 or more employees located in a Transportation Management District (TMD) are required by law to file a Traffic Mitigation Plan (TMP) and Annual Report. Both the TMP and the Annual Reports can now be filed online here.

The purpose of the law is to reduce gridlock and encourage commuting options in the County. The law applies to employers with 25 or more employees that are located in the County’s four TMDs:

        • Bethesda

        • North Bethesda

        • Friendship Heights

        • Silver Spring

Commuter Express Store in Silver Spring
Has a New Name and a New Location!

Montgomery County's Silver Spring Commuter Express Store has a new name – TRiPS – and a new location at 8413 Ramsey Avenue.  TRiPS stands for “Transportation Resources, Information and Places to See”

Soon, Silver Spring will have a brand new state-of-the-art transit facility, the Silver Spring Transit Center (SSTC).  To better serve commuters, TRiPS, formerly Commuter Express, has a new name, a new look and a new convenient location.

Existing transit system riders, new riders and visitors will receive assistance when purchasing fare media or making connections to regional public transportation.  And our walk-up window and accessible ramp allow for quick and easy service.
