116 Heidi EpsteinForest Glen metro, with its convenient parking lot are a main reason for living in this neighborhood.
117 AnonymousI am in support of building a pedestrian tunnel beneath Georgia Avenue, so long as this doesn't include shutting down lanes of Georgia Avenue during its construction. Where would the tunnel come out on the east side of Georgia Avenue?- Would it be on the property the Forest Glen Medical building?
118 Karl T. SmithGeorgia Ave. is a dangerous river of traffic. The tunnel would help fragile humans cross this river of rushing metal.

120 Lisa RigazioWell planned development encouraging density around metros is a good strategy for the environment, to encourage public transit use and prevent the dreaded SPRAWL ... however the key to this idea is being WELL PLANNED. That includes planning ways to fix existing problems and stratagize ways to avoid making them worse. The County Council must place transportation as a priority when evaluating new development.
121 Pamela TrochessetI would prefer a bridge to a tunnel but either alternative would be acceptable as long as bicycles would be accomodated.

124 scott r. scopeThere is enough congestion in this corridor already. Additional housing will only exacerbate the danger for everyone who frequently passes through this intersection. Let's put the public's safety ahead of profits for a change. It's the moral thing to do.

126 Jim SandifordLiving on Forest Glen Road within 2 blocks of the intersection of Georgia Avenue, I support FECA and the other community associations in their effort to have a tunnel built under Georgia Avenue at Forest Glen.

128 Delegate Jane LawtonI am strongly in support of your tunnel. Have you sent our petition to all the candidates to solicit signatures? It might be a good idea. I will fight for the tunnel in Annapolis - and also here in the County with my County official friends. Best to you, Jane
129 Thomas E. ConnorCrossing Georgia Avenue at Forest Glen Road is hazardous. The timining for the pedestrian crossing and signal lights is inadequate, especially for any pedestrians that may have even the slightest disability. Extending the timing for pedestrain crossing will increase traffic congestion. A tunnel is needed both for pedestrian safety and for minimizing traffic congestion. The crossing should be designed so that all pedestrians can use it even those that will not necessarily be entering the Metro system.

131 Becca KnoxI live in the neighborhood of Forest Estates and take the Metro to work every day. It is very frightening to cross at Georgia and Forest Glen, especially in the winter or in bad weather.
132 Carolyn GodfreyMy most important concern regarding local politicians is with traffic safety in our neighborhood for my husband and children who use the Metro regularly.
133 Madere OlivarI crossed Georgia at Forest Glen one time 6 years ago and have never repeated the experience. It's incredibly dangerous.
134 Saundra MaleyPlease help make the intersection at GA Ave. and Forest Glen safer -- it is treacherous righ now! Thanks
135 Dan LeggettThis is a 'no brainer'. Build a tunnel!

138 Ann PiesenCrossing Georgia at Forest Glen Road like playing Frogger with your life. I've seen mothers with their small children trying to keep from being hit by cars absent mindedly making right turns and still having to run across trying to keep time with the lights.
139 Phil MargoliesCrossing Georgia at the Forest Glen intersection is dangerous! Pedestrians need a tunnel!

141 Todd BoyerWithout question, I support the tunnel
142 Rebecca Marvin BoyerI cross Georiga Ave. every morning to access Metro. It is extremely dangerous. Something MUST be done.
143 Hilary KinneyThis intersection is very dangerous. A pedestrian tunnel is affordable compared to the cost of a human life.
