  14. Randolph Rd/N Bethesda TransitwayService Plan Route Structure Trunk Portion Montgomery Mall to University Blvd (11.1 miles) Every Other Trip to White Oak via New Hampshire Ave (2.6 miles) or Randolph Rd and U.S. 29 (5.4 miles)

  15. Randolph Rd/N Bethesda TransitwayService Plan Modifications to Local Service • Metrobus Route C8 would serve as the local option between White Flint and White Oak. • Ride On Route 10 would serve as the local option between Twinbrook and White Oak.

  16. Randolph Rd/N Bethesda TransitwayService Plan Recommended Phasing Phase I Enhanced limited stop bus service along the Randolph Road Corridor between White Flint and White Oak/FDA with peak period service at 10-minute headways. Phase II Enhanced limited stop bus service along the Randolph Road Corridor between Montgomery Mall and White Oak/FDA with 10-minute headways. Service between Montgomery Mall and New Hampshire Avenue would operate with a 10-minute frequency, while service to White Oak/FDA would be have a 10-minute effective headway with 20-minute headway along New Hampshire and Randolph/US 29. Phase III As ridership increases and demand warrants, headways will be increased to accommodate the level of demand. According to the ridership projections in the CTCFMP, peak demand in the future would warrant six minute headways in the peak period and eight minute headways in the mid-day.
