The broken crosswalk signal at Old Georgetown Road and Cordell Avenue in downtown Bethesda has been repaired by the Maryland State Highway Administration. It was out of service as of last Monday. The pedestrian-activated signal triggers flashing yellow lights that drivers sometimes obey, so stay alert even when crossing with assistance of the lights. Now, if they can just repaint that faded crosswalk...
Wise to use during rush hour? I think not. That light at Arlington only turns green once every 2 minutes or so. Don't step out while it's green during rush hour. Have some patience even though you are walking. Safety first.
