Near Bethesda Elementary School, pedestrians will get extra lead time before signals allow cars to start moving forward. These signal changes are expected to be implemented early next year. MCDOT is also looking at adding a missing crosswalk on Bradley Boulevard where it meets Arlington, on the CVS side. Bradley Boulevard is a state route, controlled by the Maryland State Highway Administration.
Prior to their recent study, MCDOT says it had already improved and installed speed limit signage along Arlington, slightly expanded the "school hours" time and flashing lights that warn of the 5 MPH reduction in speed during those periods, and installed high visibility crosswalks at the intersection near the school.

If they had done a "road diet", you'd still be complaining.
Let's put Little Falls Parkway back to two lanes now, please. Put a stop light in for the trail if they need to, but what they did is ridiculous. The biker who died never stopped.
No coverage of the new teen museum gallery behind Woodmont Grill? I was interested in what's going on there.
6:54 AM Judge Moore?
They should look at restricting right turn on red, as well. In my experience this is one of the more dangerous driver behaviors with respect to pedestrians.
Amen
How about pedestrians actually look up instead of playing chicken with cars. Roads are meant for cars. Sidewalks for people. How quickly people want to act like superman and see if they can stop cars. Idiots.
