[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is MCPS going to reassign walkers? Probably not.

If you're in the walk zone, should you assume that there is no chance of your getting reassigned? Nope.

Especially because the area around Ashburton ES is also in the walk zone for Woodward.[/quote]

Tilden MS is in Woodward now while their school is under construction.

Woodward is next scheduled to house students from Northwood High School in Silver Spring, which is slated for a $123 million expansion to begin in [b][u]2023[/u][/b] & is slated to last for 2+ years.

This timeline doesn't even including construction delays which always add months onto estimates, but even without delays, after Northwood I was told that Ashburton is not going to be considered in the walk zone for Woodward.

I'd heard it had something to do with the hundreds of kids that will have to walk or bike the mile+ commute down the narrow sidewalks of Old Georgetown Rd during the morning rush hour to get to Woodward (there's no other way to get there).

I'd be concerned about congestion, bottleneck or horseplay on the sidewalks spilling right over onto Old Georgetown Rd & into traffic.  [/quote]
