Drilling equipment blocks sidewalk, garage pedestrian entrance in Bethesda (Photos)

A drilling company blocked the sidewalk and a pedestrian entrance to a public parking garage on Cordell Avenue last evening. No actual work was being done at the time, and the area was simply blocked off and left unattended. No signage was posted to explain to the public what the heck is going on.

7:08 AM Neighborhood news is good.
If you're in Frederick, maybe you don't care as much about Bethesda :)

If 20 feet of sidewalk is closed, I don't spend an entire evening staring at it helplessly. I just walk around it and continue on my way.

7:28 AM Be glad you're able bodied I guess.
Either way, it doesn't make sense to close off the pedestrian entrance/exit to the garage if no work was being done.

You can block a sidewalk for two weeks without a permit. It looks like the meters were bagged, so someone approved that. If you're a builder, you can get the meters bagged and obtain exclusive use of those parking spaces without charge.

A team of burgulary is doing home invasions in Brthesda
They have entered homes while a mother putting her 2 child to sleep
They are dressed in hazmat or surgical scrubs face masks and gloves
I cannot imagine the horror of walking into this
My family was victim of home invasion

Please publicize this
I believe they are Hispanic perhaps illegals idk
But please be careful

Did you find out anything about this minor sidewalk blockage, Robert? It's been a day and several hours. A whole business day in which you could have contacted live people has passed.
