​Daytime Paving Work Continues Through Late June 

(April 21, 2022) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) will begin a project on Friday, April 22, to resurface sections of asphalt pavement on MD 23 (Norrisville Road) in Harford County. The work will be complete by late June.      

Contractor crews will patch, mill and resurface sections of MD 23 from MD 439 (Old York Road) to the Old York Road just south of MD 138 (Troyer Road) and north of the Jarrettsville Volunteer Fire Company. The $609,000 project will involve crews working between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.      

There will be temporary single-lane closures, lane shifts and flagging operations during daytime work hours along sections of MD 23. At each location, temporary traffic signs, reflective barrels and electronic arrow boards will alert and guide motorists through the work zone. MDOT SHA contractor Allan Myers – MD Inc., of Fallston, is conducting the project.    

MDOT SHA 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 driving pattern changes. Please drive like you work here and slow down in construction zones.    

Motorists in need may dial #77 on their mobile device for roadside assistance.

Governor Larry Hogan has declared April as Work Zone Safety Month in Maryland. For more information on Work Zone Safety, visit roads.maryland.gov and click on the work zone safety banner. Also follow MDOT SHA on Twitter @MDSHA and on Facebook at facebook.com/MDOTSHA
