Crews Will Direct Traffic Using a Flagging Operation on Sunday Morning, November 5th
The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration will perform routine maintenance on the MD 231 (Hallowing Point Road) Bridge (Benedict Bridge) over the Patuxent River at the Calvert County/Charles County line starting at 6 a.m. Sunday November 5, weather permitting.
Lanes will open to traffic no later than 2 p.m. that afternoon.
Maintenance crews will clean the drainage systems and the bridge deck. Drivers can expect single-lane closures guided using a flagging operation.
The State Highway Administration will use flaggers and portable variable message signs to guide motorists safely through the work zone.
The State Highway Administration understands roadwork can be an inconvenience but is necessary to maintain a safe and reliable highway system. Drivers are asked to slow down in the work zone for the safety of all drivers and the crews working to improve our roadways.
