ELLICOTT CITY, MD – A Howard County construction project to mill and repave Little Patuxent Parkway between Columbia Road and Broken Land Parkway in Columbia is expected to begin on or about Sunday evening, April 28. To minimize traffic disruptions, work will take place Sunday through Thursday, from 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by late June.
Milling and paving will start near Columbia Road, moving westbound toward Broken Land Parkway. Once westbound lanes have been repaved, milling and paving will begin near eastbound Broken Land Parkway. Flagging operations will be in place to direct traffic as needed as lane shifts can be expected. Additionally, a recorded message at 410-313-3637 will carry project updates.
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.
