The State Highway Administration has started a $4.6 million safety and resurfacing project on New Hampshire Ave. from Milestone Drive to Shaw Ave. in White Oak.
If the weather allows, the 1.75-mile project should be finished by fall.
The project will involve the following tasks:
Patching the current asphalt roadway.
Upgrading ramps and sidewalks to comply with Americans with Disabilities Act standards.
Repairing the concrete median.
Reconstructing driveway aprons.
Replacing or repairing concrete curbs and gutters.
Repairing or replacing stormwater runoff inlets and drainpipes.
Installing new pavement markings and landscaping.
E&R Services Inc. of Lanham is the contractor responsible for the work, according to a Montgomery County news update.
Drivers should remain attentive and watch for lower speed limits and changes in driving patterns, especially in construction zones where speed must be reduced. If in need, motorists can call #77 on their mobile devices for roadside assistance.

A prelicensed therapist who had been practicing in Bow, N.H., was arrested Monday based on an allegation that he sexually assaulted a patient during an in-office visit, police said.
Daniel Thibeault, who faces two counts of felonious sexual assault and one count of aggravated felonious sexual assault, is being held at the Merrimack County jail pending his arraignment, according to a statement from the Bow Police Department.

Thibeault had been a candidate for licensure who was subject to a supervisory agreement since May 2024, according to state records. His arrest comes after the presiding officer of the New Hampshire Board of Mental Health Practice suspended his privileges to practice in the state in late December, citing the alleged assault.
Bow police had notified the state’s Office of Professional Licensure and Certification in early December that Thibeault was accused of sexually assaulting the patient despite her “audible demands to stop,” according to an order signed by an administrative law judge.

The incident was reported to Bow police in August, prompting an investigation by Detective Sergeant Tyler Coady that led to a warrant being issued for Thibeault‘s arrest, police said.
Efforts to reach Thibeault for comment were unsuccessful Monday. It was not immediately clear whether he has an attorney.
Police said the investigation is considered active and ongoing. Anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact Coady at 603-223-3956 or tcoady@bownhpd.gov.
