MD 12 sign
Additional Lanes, New Sidewalk and Signal Enhance Safety and Traffic Flow
(February 6, 2025) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration has completed a $3.3 million project improving safety and traffic flow at the intersection of MD 12 (Snow Hill Road) and Robins Avenue in the Salisbury area of Wicomico County.
Construction began spring 2024 and included:
- widening northbound MD 12 to add a left-turn lane with bicycle compatibility,
- widening Robins Avenue to add dedicated left- and right-turn lanes,
- constructing a new Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant sidewalk along MD 12 from Robins Avenue to Johnson Road,
- installing a traffic signal,
- updating stormwater management facilities,
- resurfacing the pavement, and
- improving signage and pavement markings.
The newly installed traffic signal will be turned on a 72-hour flash mode beginning Monday, February 10. The signal is expected to be fully operational by Thursday, February 13. Contractor David A. Bramble, of Chestertown, performed the work. Learn more about the project here.
The State Highway Administration appreciates customers’ patience as we work to improve Maryland’s transportation system. Motorists are asked to stay alert, stay focused and be aware of reduced speed limits and changing driving patterns. Slow down and move over in work zones. It’s the law.
Motorists in need may dial #77 on their mobile devices for roadside assistance.
