(March 16, 2011) – The Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) is improving drainage along MD 292 (Still Pond Road) / MD 566 (Old Still Pond Road) between the MD 566 split at Medders Road and Maple Avenue in Still Pond, Kent County.  The $193,000 project begins the week of March 28 and should be complete by mid-April, weather permitting.

SHA may close a lane between 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday on MD 292 / MD 566.  Construction work will affect one-half mile along MD 292 (Still Pond Road) as crews replace the existing drains and inlets on both sides of MD 292 / MD 566. 

SHA awarded the project to Brawner Builders, Inc. of Hunt Valley.  Motorists should drive with extreme caution through the work zone.  Citizens may contact the SHA District 2 Office toll-free at 1- 800-637-9740 or 410-778-3061.  They may also contact SHA at SHADistrict2@sha.state.md.us. 

When workers are on the road, THINK ORANGE, which is the color of construction signs, barrels and warning devices.  Please slow down, stay alert and expect the unexpected.  Choose to make work zone safety your business at www.choosesafetyforlife.com.  Safer driving.  Safer work zones.
