[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It frequently takes my dd 45-60 minutes to get to extra curriculars ar Marshall in the 5-6:00 hour. Perhaps we should start a petition to close the ramp to 495 from route 7. It’s unfair for us to be sooooo inconvenienced. There is no other way to get in and out of the school other than using route 7. And if the ramp at Georgetown pike is closed, then the traffic will move to route 7 to get onto the beltway.[/quote]

Except that GTP is two lanes and Route 7 is eight lanes, so no one on Route 7 is trapped the way that GTP people are trapped.  Plus, now most every route, including Route 7 - has sidewalks, but most of GTP does not have sidewalks, not the abutting neighborhoods, so traffic in that particular area is a legitimate safety issue. Apples and oranges. Know what you are talking about before you prattle on.[/quote]

This, exactly.  That's the problem with people who don't even live in the area or understand what the issue is.  They add nothing to the conversation.  [/quote]
