ELLICOTT CITY – A Howard County construction project to conduct soil borings near 4595 Bonnie Branch Road in Ellicott City is expected to begin on or about Monday, November 11. The borings will evaluate subsurface conditions and road embankment stability for future streambank stabilization at the site. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed within five business days.
At times during the project, Bonnie Branch Road thru traffic will shift to one lane, weekdays 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Flagging operations will be in place to direct motorists as needed. Signs will be posted in the area to alert motorists of the construction.
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.
