Last week, MCDOT completed
a pedestrian safety audit of Woodmont Avenue between Old Georgetown Road and
Battery Lane. The audit was done over two days during morning hours, at mid-day
and evening. The audit group walked Woodmont Avenue to assess conditions that
could affect pedestrian safety, such as crosswalks, sidewalks and obstacles
that prevent drivers from seeing pedestrians clearly. The next step will be
preparation of a report detailing audit findings and recommendations about ways
to improve safety.
