Montgomery County Department of Transportation's (MCDOT) Division of Transportation Engineering is installing pervious concrete sidewalk along Needwood Road.
The project to enchance pedestrian and bicycle safety in Rockville should be completed this summer. Crews
are installing a pervious concrete sidewalk along Needwood Road from Redland
Road to Deer Lake Road and making modifications to the intersection with
Redland Road.
The effort is an extension of the
Redland Road intersection improvement project that previously installed
additional lanes, a mixed use bicycle path, signal improvements, sidewalks, and
enhanced storm drains and storm water management along Redland Road.
In the next few weeks, MCDOT will
also begin the first phase of bike path construction along Needwood Road from
the beginning of Nature Trail, west of Lake Needwood, to the ICC Trail
terminus. The nearly one-half-mile, eight-foot-wide shared use path will be
constructed along the south side of Needwood Road and is expected to take nine
months to complete.
