Officials To Provide Road Updates At Meeting Next Week

Officials from the State Highway Administration will provide updates next week on the numerous road and sidewalk projects going on in and around downtown Bethesda.

SHA representatives are scheduled to speak during the next meeting of the Walter Reed BRAC (Base Realignment and Closure) Integration Committee starting at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 15 at the Bethesda-Chevy Chase Regional Services Center (4805 Edgemoor Lane).

Many of the projects, including utility and pavement work at Rockville Pike and Cedar Lane and an intersection widening and lane construction at Connecticut Avenue and Jones Bridge Road, are being paid for with help from grants from the Department of Defense.

A schedule of all projects is available on the Montgomery County website.

The SHA will also give a presentation on post-construction landscape designs for the Connecticut Avenue and Jones Bridge Road project.

The meeting will also include briefings from the county’s BRAC coordinator and neighborhood representatives.
