State Highway Administration to Spend $2.8 Million to Clean, Paint Montgomery Bridges
Next week, the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration will begin cleaning and painting eight bridges in Montgomery County. Weather and progress permitting, the $2.8 million project should be complete spring 2018.
Crews will start the project by cleaning and painting the MD 28 (Norbeck Road) Bridges over Rock Creek in Rockville. Crews will also address these bridges:
- I-270 over Tuckerman Lane;
- I-495X (Cabin John Parkway) Bridge over Cabin John Creek;
- I-495 (Capital Beltway) Bridges over Cabin John Creek;
- I-495 over Cedar Lane; and
- I-495 over MD 185 (Connecticut Avenue).
To complete the bridge cleaning and painting project, crews are permitted to close a lane in both directions of each road, weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and overnight, Sunday through Thursday, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Additional work hours and lane closures may be necessary to expedite all phases of work.
The contractor for the work is K&K Painting of Baltimore.
