Montgomery County Department of Transportation's (MCDOT) Division of Transportation Engineering (DTE) will hold a public meeting to obtain resident input on two
proposed sidewalks. Residents may present oral and/or written comments
concerning construction of sidewalks. The sidewalks will provide persons with
disabilities, pedestrians and bicyclists safer access to schools and nearby
destinations.
The proposed projects are:
- East Shaw Avenue-Autumn Drive, from New Hampshire Avenue to Autumn Drive on the north side and to Cannon Road on the east side. The sidewalk is located in Silver Spring.
- On the south side of Wyngate Drive, from Old Georgetown Road to Melvern Drive in Bethesda.
The hearings for both projects will
be held consecutively on Thursday, April 14 in the first floor auditorium of the
Council Office Building located at 100 Maryland Avenue in Rockville. The
hearings begin at 6 p.m.
Project files are available for
examination in DTE’s offices located on the 4th Floor of 100 Edison Park Drive,
