ELLICOTT CITY, MD – A Howard County construction project to repair and improve the stormwater management pond located south of 7838 Mayfield Avenue in Elkridge, is expected to begin on or about Monday, March 15th. The project will include the installation of a reinforced concrete riser and concrete spillway pipe. Also, approximately 250 feet of the pond’s outfall channel will be graded and stabilized. Plantings will also be installed at the pond’s perimeter to improve water quality. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by late September.
Signs and flagging operations will be in place to direct traffic as needed, as occasional lane shifts along Mayfield Avenue can be expected during construction hours, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Temporary sidewalk closures may also be necessary.
The project is funded through the County’s Watershed Protection and Restoration Fund.
