A section of the Matthew Henson Trail in Aspen Hill will have to temporarily close for several months to repair a culvert underneath it. The culvert in question is under the portion of the trail next to Turkey Branch Parkway at Grenoble Drive. Montgomery County's Department of Transportation will create an ADA-compliant detour for the trail at that location. Work could begin as soon as the end of August, MCDOT says.
