Description:
The
Montgomery County Department of Public Works and Transportation
constructed a timber deck bicycle and pedestrian trail
on the existing Georgetown Branch Trestle Bridge over
Rock Creek, with crushed stone approach trails at
each end. This project is part of a long term project
called the Capital Crescent / Metropolitan Branch
Trail (CC/MB); this is an off-road, shared use trail
that will traverse Silver Spring and continue into
the District of Columbia. Rehabilitating the existing
bridge over Rock Creek allows the elimination of the
1 3/4- mile long detour in the CC/MB.
