Randolph Road Sidewalk again

Randolph Road near JFK, February 15, 2010, 11:00 a.m.
School starts back up tomorrow with a two hour delay
How will students navigate this walkway with oncoming traffic?

So how do you find out who is responsible for this sidewalk?  Would you start at the State Highway?  Would you call the mayor?  Do you have a mayor in Wheaton or Silver Spring?  If the neighbors put up a fence and offending sidewalk backs up to their fence, who is responsible?   Is this a state road?  Is the state responsible?  No, maybe, Montgomery County?  The school system?

How far do they have jurisdiction off the road, ten feet?

Find the answers to these questions.  Good reporters find the answers to these questions and more.
