From Maryland State Highway Administration:
———

The Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) is hosting an informational meeting/open house on Wednesday, June 27 about (Aberdeen Thruway) in Aberdeen, Harford County:

• MD 22/Beards Hill Road
• MD 22/MD 462 (Paradise Road)
• MD 22/Old Post Road

The intersection improvement projects are related to Maryland’s BRAC (Base Realignment and Closure) improvements at Aberdeen Proving Ground.

WHEN:
Wednesday, June 27 between 6 and 8 p.m. There is no formal presentation - arrive at any time. Attendees may walk through project displays at their own pace and speak with project team members.

WHERE:
– Cafeteria
251 Paradise Road, Aberdeen, Md. 21001

WHY:
Citizens have the opportunity to provide feedback about SHA’s proposed improvements that include widening MD 22 at the three intersections to provide additional turning lanes and/or through lanes; widening to accommodate bicycles and constructing new sidewalks; pavement repair and resurfacing; curbs and gutters; and upgrading traffic signal systems.  The State recently allocated funding for right-of-way acquisition and utility relocation to these MD 22 projects.  SHA expects to finish design for the Old Post Road intersection later this year, in early 2013 for Beards Hill Road, and in fall 2014 for Paradise Road.
