The State Highway Administration’s contractor, Concrete General, Inc. of Hagerstown, will use cones, barrels, and signs to guide motorists through the detour.
The State Highway Administration appreciates customers’ patience during this necessary work to maintain and improve Maryland’s transportation system and keep it in a state of good repair. Drivers are asked to stay alert, stay focused, and slowdown in work zones.
Motorists in need may dial #77 on their mobile devices for roadside assistance.
