The Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT), the East County Regional Service Center and
Montgomery County Police hosted a community stakeholder meeting to discuss
plans for a Pedestrian Road Safety Audit/Study in the North White Oak/Burnt
Mills area along Longwood Drive, from Oak Leaf to Stewart Lane. MCDOT periodically
conducts Pedestrian Road Safety audits in areas that are experiencing traffic
and pedestrian safety related issues. Information from the audit is then used
to develop recommendations about possible improvements.
At the community meeting for
civic leaders and stakeholders, staff provided information on the audit process
and traffic and pedestrian safety concerns in the area.
