Marriott HQ developers release new utility work schedule

The development partners for the new Marriott International headquarters in downtown Bethesda have released a new schedule for upcoming utility work related to the project. This work will require sidewalk and lane closures. They will be working in a clockwise direction, starting the second week in February on Woodmont Avenue.

By late April, they should be working at the intersection of Woodmont and Norfolk Avenue. The block of Norfolk between Woodmont and Wisconsin Avenue is scheduled to be completed over the half of this summer. Wisconsin Avenue utility work will follow from late July to just before Thanksgiving.

None of this work involves Pepco, however. It is primarily WSSC water lines and stormwater management infrastructure. Loud noise like sawing pavement will be performed only during daytime hours, but expect less noisy work to take place Monday-Friday, 6:00 PM to 5:00 AM, from February through November.
