​(April 18, 2019) – Beginning April 22, the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) will perform guardrail work, drainage inlet cleaning and removal of debris on MD 90 (Ocean City Expressway) between US 113 (Worcester Highway) and St. Martin’s Neck Road in Worcester County. The 5.5-mile project will take up to five days to complete and will necessitate nighttime closures and detours of MD 90. The work should be complete by Friday, April 26.

Crews will work each night between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m. and MD 90 will be closed and detoured during those work hours. Local access will be maintained during work. Motorists are encouraged to use US 50 (Ocean Gateway) into lower Ocean City as an alternate route.

MDOT SHA works hard to maintain safe traffic mobility in work zones for our crews as well as our contractor. Drivers need to stay alert, focus on the road and look for reduced speed limits, narrow driving lanes and highway workers. Drive like you work here and slowdown in construction zones.
