For One Week, Motorists Can Expect Multiple Overnight Lane Closures
(September 10, 2024) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration will improve the riding surface on several roads in Montgomery County starting the week of September 16. Crews will work Sundays through Thursdays 8 p.m.-5 a.m. The pavement improvement projects should be complete by early October, weather permitting.
The roads to be improved are:
- MD 182 (Layhill Road) between MD 200 (Intercounty Connector) and MD 97 (Georgia Avenue); and
- MD 188 (Wilson Lane) between MacArthur Boulevard and Hampden Lane.
Crews will begin applying micro-surfacing material, which is used to preserve and extend the life of the existing asphalt. During work hours, motorists can expect multiple lane closures guided by a flagging operation.
The State Highway Administration’s contractor, Slurry Pavers of Virginia, will use variable message signs, flaggers and barrels, to guide motorists through the work zone. Equipment used for construction may be disruptive. Motorists should travel undistracted through all work zones and motorists should obey all posted speed limits.
The State Highway Administration works hard to maintain safe traffic mobility in work zones for our crews as well as our customers. Drivers need to stay alert, focus on driving, and look for reduced speed limits as well as other traffic pattern changes. Please drive like you work here and slow down in construction zones. Motorists can dial #77 on their mobile devices for roadside assistance.
