US 40 Pedestrian Survey

About This Survey

A pedestrian safety study is underway for US 40 Dual Highway from Cannon Avenue to Redwood Circle. This corridor has had several recent pedestrian fatalities and has become a priority for the City of Hagerstown and the County. As the study gets underway, a survey has been developed to obtain public insights and opinions for those living or working near US 40. Please let us know any specific issues you have had walking along US 40 and whether there are any improvements that would make this corridor more walkable for you or others.
