ELLICOTT CITY, MD – A Howard County construction project to restore and stabilize a heavily eroded storm drain outfall channel near 11840 Bright Passage in the Village of Hickory Ridge in Columbia is expected to begin on or about Monday, February 4. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by mid-March 2019.
The project is not expected to impact the flow of traffic; however, signs will be posted to advise 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. Slow down and don’t follow too closely. Work zone safety is in your hands.
The project is funded through the County’s Watershed Protection and Restoration Fund.
