Residents in the Carney area will be glad to know that the recent road work along Joppa Road will be winding down this month.

Councilman David Marks posted the following update on Thursday morning:

“I am glad to pass along this update from the county Department of Public Works: ‘The gas upgrades will be complete by the end of this week. Steel plates will be removed and hot mix put down next week…..BGE’s paving crew has made this job a priority so weather permitting the permanent patching will take place ASAP.’ This will mean that you should see resurfacing next week – but it is better than waiting until the spring.”

Road work along Joppa Road has been ongoing for the past several months.
