The Montgomery County Department of Parks will oversee the removal of several trees along the Capital Crescent Trail near Bethesda Avenue beginning June 15.
The project will remove approximately 22 dead, diseased, damaged and defective trees along the trail from Bethesda Avenue until the D.C. line, said urban forester Ryan Jones. Some removals include trees that could affect the trail in the long-term.
