A work in progress theoretical transit plan for the state of Maryland in general, focusing on the Baltimore metropolitan area. This plan aims to solve Baltimore's transit woes by implementing a multi-modal transit system, built around six automated light metro lines. Inspirations: WMATA Metro (Washington DC), Vancouver SkyTrain, Seattle (both Sound Transit and King County Metro), SEPTA (Regional Rail) BWI SkyTram idea and stations by u/Capitol_Limited on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/baltimore/comments/18c4no3/the_bwi_skytram_a_fantasy_proposed_airport_apm/ Routing for the BWI SkyTram routes was made by me. While we both used "MetroLink" for the rapid transit branding, used letter-based line names, and have some similar lines, I did not use their Baltimore MetroLink plan to create mine. Only the BWI SkyTram in this system is directly based on their work. The Express Bus routes use the BRT category instead of local bus, as the trip time is much more accurate for long, limited-stop routes. --- Changelog: https://osfanbuff63.leaflet.pub/3mylgxb5zfk2d
