We, the undersigned residents of north College Park are concerned about public safety in the area around the western entrance to the Greenbelt Metro station. The area has seen a number of frequent and often violent crimes such as assaults, thefts and muggings. Recently, a 15 year-old teenager was sexually assaulted by a lone perpetrator in broad daylight.

We believe that the only way to address such excessive crime in this area is to install surveillance cameras at the entrance of the Metro station and along the pathway that leads to the nearby neighborhood.

We ask WMATA to take immediate action to install these cameras at the suggested locations and make Metro riders from our neighborhood feel safe.

    • A security camera outside of the Greenbelt Metro station along the path to Lackawanna Street is long overdue. Many people have been mugged or robbed along this path. This is the least that WMATA can do to help ensure the safety of its users along this path.

    • Considering the jurisdictional issues and difficulty of providing a consistant police presence, the installation of surveillance cameras on the west side of the station and along the pathway to Lackawanna Street is an appropriate way to improve safety for Metro riders and the local community.

    • This is an imperative that you get this done ASAP. Plus have someone monitoring the cameras and also install a set of alarm boxes that people may use along and at the end of the path.

    • Your station exit is in a very dark area, and crime is rising here. Don't be a part of the problem; show that you care about your riders. THANK YOU.
