What:  
           
Public Informational Meeting to discuss safety improvements along two sections  of MD 32 from MD 99 (Old Frederick Road) to Amberwoods Way, and from Day Road to West Friendship Road.
 
When:   
         
Wednesday, September 18, 2013 between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m.
(Brief Presentation – 6:15 p.m.)
 
Where: 
          
West Friendship Volunteer Fire Department, 12535 Old Frederick Road, Sykesville, MD 21784.
 
Why:    
          
The roadway improvements from Day Road to West Friendship Road involve widening of about one mile of MD 32 to accommodate a continuous center turn lane, full width shoulders, and acceleration and deceleration lanes at the two intersections.   This work is funded for construction and is expected to begin late spring 2014.
 
Additionally, SHA is proposing improvements from MD 99 to Amberwoods Way.  This would include adding deceleration lanes at several intersections, full width shoulders, and widening the existing center turn lane.  In addition, the full width shoulders on both projects will be signed and marked as bicycle lanes.  This work is funded for design and engineering; no construction funding has been allocated.
 
The meeting allows for comments and questions regarding the projects and potential property impacts.  Maps and other exhibits depicting the proposed improvements will be on display for public viewing.
