Councilmember Valerie Ervin writes about pedestrian safety at our intersection on her website:

"Forest Glen Pedestrian Safety

As the Council representative to the Pedestrian Safety Advisory Committee, I am very concerned about the serious pedestrian safety issues surrounding the Forest Glen Metro Station and the intersection of Georgia Avenue and Forest Glen Road. I worked on these issues with my colleagues on the Council's Transportation and Environment Committee and the full Council agreed to rank the east side entrance to the Forest Glen Metro station as the number two priority among transit projects that should be funded by the State of Maryland. Furthermore, the Council and Executive have ranked the reconstruction of Georgia Avenue between 16th Street and Forest Glen Road as the top priority for detailed study.
