ELLICOTT CITY, MD – A Howard County project to convert the intersection of Gorman Road and Skylark Boulevard in Laurel to a multi-way traffic stop is scheduled to take place on or about Tuesday, April 30.
The project will involve the addition of a stop sign on westbound Gorman Road and one on eastbound Skylark Boulevard at the intersection to create the new traffic pattern. Recent studies have shown that traffic volume continues to increase in the area, making the change necessary to improve safety for turning traffic at that intersection.
Signs will be posted in the area a week prior to the change to alert motorists of the reconfiguration.
For questions or concerns about the new traffic pattern, contact Lisa Brightwell, Public Works Customer Service, at 410-313-3440 or by e-mail to publicworks@howardcountymd.gov.
