Hiker/Biker Trail BLOCKED!

Even though the temporary trail was approved, communicated and confirmed they are now building a giant fence to block off the hiker biker trail.

No notice was given to anyone.

Folks who live on Woodberry will not even be able to get back to their homes from the Metro.  The sidewalk on Route 1 is not completed.

No one will be able to get to the stores or the rest of the hiker biker trail.

The temporary trail was agreed on by all players involved including all of the surrounding towns and is being used by hundreds of people per day.   This is not going to work.




Monday night edit:

Due to some quick and bold action from a homeowner the construction was halted for the day.  The fence posts are still up and I believe the fence was only delayed at this point.   All surrounding towns, LF Jennings, Cafriz, Stanley Martin and the HOA have been contacted.   Even the Diamondback, Hyattsville Wire and others were contacted.   You probably will be seeing more information about this on other sites like these in the coming days.

  2. This fence is up -- ran into the issue on my way home from work today. This trail was my favorite development in our neighborhoods and taking it away after having access for so long is extremely frustrating! Any idea who we can talk to?
