​Motorists Should Expect Traffic Delays During Work Hours 

(July 15, 2025) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration will begin a resurfacing project on MD 363 (Deal Island Road) from Upper Thorofare to Rock Creek in Somerset County on Thursday, July 24.  The work should be completed by mid-September, weather permitting.  

Drivers can expect a flagging operation and single-lane closures weekdays, from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., as crews begin the milling and resurfacing operations. Contractor, Allan Myers of Fallston, MD will use arrow boards, cones, and flaggers to safely guide motorists through the work zone. The single lane closures will be in place until the project has been completed. 

The State Highway Administration appreciates customers’ patience during construction as we work to improve Maryland’s transportation system.  Drivers are asked to stay alert, stay focused and be aware of reduced speed limits and changing driving patterns in the work zone.  Slow Down and move over int work zones.  It’s the law.
