ELLICOTT CITY, MD – Phase two of a Howard County construction project to reduce erosion along the stream banks of the Bonnie Branch at 4740 Bonnie Branch Road in Ellicott City, is expected to begin on or about Monday, January 9, 2023. The project will improve the stability of the stream channel and steep slopes along Bonnie Branch Road in the project area, as well as improve the water quality of the stream and the Patapsco River. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by late February 2023.
The project is not expected to impact the general flow of vehicular traffic; however, flaggers will be in place to direct motorists during material deliveries when temporary lane closures may be needed. Construction hours are Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., and, when needed, Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Signs will be posted near the project area to advise motorists and pedestrians of the work.
The project is partially funded through the County’s Watershed Protection and Restoration Fund.
