​Drivers Can Expect Weekend-Long Lane Closures in White Marsh Beginning Friday, April 10 

(April 7, 2026) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration will perform a $150,000 concrete pavement repair project for two weekends on a section of westbound US 40 (Pulaski Highway) between east of Days Cove Road and Allender Road in White Marsh on the weekends of April 10 and April 17, weather permitting. 

Drivers can expect a right-lane closure on westbound US 40 between 9 p.m. Friday through  5 a.m. Monday, April 13. Crews will return to work on the left lane the following weekend between 9 p.m. Friday, April 17 and 5 a.m. Monday, April 20. One lane on westbound US 40 will be closed 24 hours a day through the weekend, and the other lane may be shifted onto the shoulder to enable the concrete to cure. Both lanes of eastbound US 40 will remain open during the work on the westbound lanes.    

On Wednesdays and Thursdays, contractor crews will have temporary lane closures in effect  9 a.m.– 3 p.m. on westbound US 40 to prepare for the weekend work. 

The work includes removing and replacing sections of old concrete pavement and test sections of new concrete pavement along westbound US 40 in the project limits. The work will greatly improve safety and ride quality.   

This work is being done as part of a $7 million contract for asphalt and concrete pavement repair and resurfacing in Baltimore and Harford counties. The State Highway Administrator’s contractor, Gray & Son, Inc. of Timonium, will use temporary portable digital message boards, traffic signs and cones to guide motorists through the work zone.  

The State Highway Administration is Serious About Safety​. Pedestrians and motorists are urged to remain alert and avoid distractions when traveling through the work zone. Motorists should obey all posted speed limits. Motorists can dial #77 on their mobile devices for roadside assistance.​
