Ride On Route 34 will return to full service Wednesday after a months-long detour due to a Bethesda intersection project.
The 34 bus, which operates between Friendship Heights and Aspen Hill with stops in Wheaton, Kensington and Bethesda, will again be able to travel both ways on Cedar Lane.
Montgomery County BRAC Coordinator Phil Alperson said the State Highway Administration coordinated with Ride On to relocate construction barriers at the Cedar Lane and Rockville Pike intersection. The relocation will allow the 34 bus to turn onto eastbound Cedar Lane toward Kensington.
Since last summer, the bus was only able to travel toward Friendship Heights on Cedar Lane and was detouring onto Jones Bridge Road when heading toward Kensington, Wheaton and Aspen Hill.
The SHA closed Cedar Lane east of Rockville Pike for two months last summer in order to build a stream culvert under the road.
