The $600,000 project is part of a $7.6 million State Highway Administration contract to repair, patch, mill and resurface pavements on Interstate highways in Baltimore County. The contractor for these resurfacing projects is Gray and Son, Inc. of Timonium.

The State Highway Administration 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 traffic pattern changes.
