ELLICOTT CITY, MD – A Howard County construction project to improve a storm water infrastructure near 860 Beetz Road in Mount Airy, is expected to begin on or about Monday, September 21st. The project will include the installation of approximately 400 linear feet of new storm drain pipe and inlets and resurfacing along the southbound lane. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by late October.
Signs will be posted in the area to alert motorists of the construction and flagging operations will be in place to direct traffic as needed, as lane shifts can be expected during construction hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
While the County and its transportation partners work hard to maintain safe traffic mobility in work zones, drivers are reminded to stay alert and look for reduced speed limits, narrow driving lanes and highway workers. Please slow down and don’t follow too closely when traveling through a work zone. Remember, work zone safety is in your hands.
