MD 410 Safety and Resurfacing Project

From Park Avenue to MD 650 (New Hampshire Avenue) Takoma Park, Montgomery County

CONSTRUCTION IS UNDERWAY.

Beginning this week, the Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) will resurface one mile of MD 410 (Philadelphia Avenue/Ethan Allen Avenue/East West Highway) between Park Avenue and MD 650 (New Hampshire Avenue) in Takoma Park. Weather permitting, the $550,000 project should be complete summer 2013.

As part of the work, SHA will:

. Replace concrete curb and gutter;

. Upgrade sidewalks, sidewalk ramps and driveways for Americans With Disabilities (ADA) compliance;

. Patch the road surface and prepare the road surface for final asphalt paving; and

. Resurface all travel lanes and apply new pavement markings.

Residents and travelers are advised that equipment used for construction can be loud and disruptive. SHA asks for your patience as crews work to complete this project.

Pedestrian access will be maintained at all times during construction. Signs, construction barrels and cones, arrow boards and flaggers will be used to direct pedestrians and traffic within the work zone.

TEMPORARY LANE CLOSURES

Through late summer, SHA may intermittently close lanes on MD 410 (all work is weather permitting):

. Weekdays between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. and overnight, Sunday through Thursday, between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m.
