As the days get shorter and the nights get longer, it’s important for the safety and comfort of residents, shoppers, students, and workers that our street lights are working . Reporting street light outages to Pepco is easy and effective. Simply use Pepco’s online tool to report a light outage on the “cobrahead” style lights on the wooden poles.
To report a streetlight outage on a decorative metal pole, like those found on Carroll Avenue and Holton Lane, submit a request on My TKPK.

The City wants to hear your thoughts for the ongoing Parking Management Study. The meeting boards from the October public open houses are available to download from the project web page and we will be accepting comments through November 7. Learn more and share your input: http://takomaparkmd.gov/parking-study
About the Study: Takoma Park is studying parking issues across the city that include meters, handicap parking, residential parking permit (RPP) zones, commercial vehicle parking, parking “hot spots”, enforcement, and City Code and regulations. The study is a comprehensive and inter-departmental effort aimed at modernizing and streamlining existing programs while preparing for ongoing developments and technological changes that affect how and where people are going in Takoma Park.
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) is implementing a plan to repair and improve the Metrorail system called SafeTrack. The plan significantly expands maintenance time on weeknights, weekends and midday hours and includes 15 “Safety Surges” – long duration track outages for major projects in key parts of the system.
Between August 1 and 7, Surge #6 will entail single tracking on the Red Line between Takoma and Silver Spring stations. The City is encouraging residents and commuters to telework, bike, and carpool. Learn more here.
This event will provide the community with an opportunity to learn more about the proposed Development Agreement and Ground Lease agreement for the Takoma Junction Redevelopment project, as well as the anticipated development process.
