7770 NORFOLK STREET CLOSURE UPDATE

The previously-announced utility work around the 7770 Norfolk luxury apartment tower construction site in Bethesda is scheduled to begin today. An update from the Clark Construction contractor says the connection and extension of wet utility piping will necessitate detours of pedestrian and automobile traffic on Norfolk and Fairmont Avenues. The utility project will take approximately 7 weeks to complete. Watch for signage if you are walking or driving in that area. Property owners in the immediate vicinity have been informed of the work.

While there appears to be no change in the project itself, the update apparently is to address the fact that the previously-scheduled start date of September 3 has been updated to today. The affected section of Norfolk is between Fairmont and Woodmont Avenues.
