Thank you Montgomery County Department of Transportation for paving this dirt trail by Pike and Rose! Our Pike District Pedestrian Safety Campaign is getting results because advocacy works…and because the White Flint area truly wants walking in our community to be safe and convenient.

Nice.

Can you explain where this is exactly? It looks like it might be on Montrose Parkway, but I’m not sure which intersection. Thank you.

It’s near the Ride On parking lot near Pike and Rose and Montrose Parkway.

Thank you for location. More sidewalks are always good, especially in this area where it can be a challenge to get around on foot. And the dirt trail is a good indication that it’s already a well-used path.

Are there any plans for that space other than it’s continued use as a parking lot?

There are no plans as of right now for the parking lot.
