How are they able to get away with not allowing pedestrians if there's a law requiring sidewalks be open? People are going to walk on that road whether they allow it or not and i hate to be the one to say it but someone will get hurt
Because this construction project has been able to get away with doing what ever suits them, especially where traffic is concerned. The closing of Leland, Miller, and no pedestrian walkways along Bethesda Ave just to name a few.
