AFTER MONTHS OF DELAY, SHA RESUMES WORK ON WISCONSIN AVENUE SIDEWALKS IN BETHESDA (PHOTOS)

One of the biggest complaint-generators in downtown Bethesda this year, has been the Maryland State Highway Administration's bizarre habit of tearing up sidewalks, and then abandoning the mess for months.

It has been a disgrace and embarrassment to leave Bethesda's "main drag," Wisconsin Avenue, in such reprehensible condition. And a tremendous danger to pedestrians.

Finally, SHA contractors are back on site, hopefully to finish the job this time.

SHA EXPANDS CONTROVERSIAL BETHESDA SIDEWALK CONSTRUCTION TO OLD GEORGETOWN ROAD (PHOTOS)

Even as citizen complaints continue regarding dangerously-unfinished sidewalk projects on Wisconsin Avenue, the Maryland State Highway Administration is starting a similar project on Old Georgetown Road at Woodmont Avenue.

One has to wonder why additional ADA retrofit projects are being started, when uneven-surfaced, unfinished projects still await completion elsewhere in town.
