Beginning Sunday evening, Aug. 7, the Maryland State Highway Administration will begin a pavement repair and resurfacing work on Route 22 in the heart of Churchville.
The work will go on weeknights, weather permitting, until late September, the SHA said in a news release.
The work area roughly runs along Route (Churchville Road) between Route 136 (Calvary Road) and Route 155 (Level Road), an area which is normally congested during the daytime..
According to the SHA news release, there will be overnight temporary lane closures, lane shifts, changing traffic patterns and flagging operations along sections of Route 22 from Sunday through Thursday between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. the next morning.
The cost of the project is $313,000. SHA's contractor for the project is Gray and Son, Inc. of Timonium.
SHA asks motorists to stay alert - look for reduced speed limits, narrow driving lanes and highway workers. Slow down and don't follow too closely.
Citizens with questions about the maintenance project may contact SHA's District 4 Office - Maintenance Division at 410-229-2360, toll-free at 1-866-998-0367 or by email at shadistrict4@sha.state.md.us.
