ELLICOTT CITY, MD – As part of a developer improvement project to the Midway Business Center located in the 9300 block of Snowden River Parkway in Columbia, a newly installed traffic signal at the intersection of Snowden River Parkway and the entrance to the business center is scheduled to be activated today, July 2.
To alert motorists of the new signal, the signal will be set to temporarily flash yellow for Snowden River Parkway traffic and flash red for traffic entering and exiting the business center entrance. Motorists approaching the flashing yellow signal should proceed with caution through the intersection, while those with flashing red should stop before proceeding through intersection when clear. The flash operation will switch to full color (green, yellow and red) the afternoon of Tuesday, July 9.
Variable message sign boards will be deployed in the area to alert motorists of the upcoming change to the intersection. Additional signage will be posted to advise motorists of the revised traffic pattern once it is in place.
