The Oak Drive (MD 27) Sidewalk project provides for the installation of a concrete sidewalk along the west side of Oak Drive (Phase I) and the east side of Oak Drive (Phase II and III) in Damascus. The Phase I sidewalk along Oak Drive is about 4,200 feet long and includes a 350-foot segment along the south side of Kingstead Road. It was installed in 2022. The public information meeting will focus on Phases II and III of the project.
At the meeting, MCDOT staff will present project details, costs, and the schedule. MCDOT also will seek public comments and answer questions. Public input is encouraged and may influence the final design of the second and third phases of the project.
Individuals interested in attending the hybrid public information meeting can participate either in-person or virtually via Zoom. The in-person meeting will be held in the medium conference room of the Damascus Community Library located at 9701 Main Street in Damascus. To attend the meeting virtually, you must register online.
