MCDOT Prepares for Spring/Summer Cleaning of County Garages
For Immediate Release: Wednesday, April 13, 2022
The Montgomery County Department of Transportation (MCDOT) has begun its semi-annual interior washdown to degrease and clean 21 County-owned parking garages in Silver Spring, Bethesda and Wheaton.
The washings will occur on nights and weekends this spring. The cleanings are scheduled to begin in the Bethesda garages on April 11 and end in the Silver Spring garages on June 4. View the full schedule here.
Every year, MCDOT performs the spring and fall washdowns to ensure the cleanliness of garages and to protect and prevent deterioration of the structures from prolonged exposure to salt, sand, oils, gas, dirt, pollen and leaves. The regular cleanings also help keep grease, oil and debris out of our waterways.
Some garages will experience partial closures that may include select entrance/exit areas and ramps. MCDOT contractors will do their best to complete their work around the garage traffic and parked vehicles and to provide appropriate signage to notify customers of anticipated access impacts.
