On Wednesday, Aug. 28, starting at 7 p.m., the Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) will hold an in-person public meeting to discuss the proposed Sandy Spring Road (MD 198) sidewalk improvements in Burtonsville. The public will have an opportunity to provide comments and ask questions.  

The meeting will be held at the Burtonsville Elementary School, All Purpose Room located at 15516 Old Columbia Pike in Burtonsville.  

The planned project offers a 5-foot-wide, ADA-compliant, concrete sidewalk to fill the missing pedestrian link between Dino Drive and McKnew Road in Burtonsville.  

At the public meeting, MCDOT will present the proposed project details, costs and schedules. Public comments will be collected, and MCDOT staff will answer project questions from attendees. Public input is encouraged and may influence the final design of the project.  

The public is encouraged to visit the project website and provide feedback via the online comment form or via email to the Project Manager, Khursheed Bilgrami at [email protected]. All information provided will become a matter of public record. 

Interpreter services will be provided upon request with five business days' advance notice. To request interpreter services, email Lori Main at [email protected] or call 240-777-7271.
