The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (SHA) has issued a Notice to Proceed to the contractor that will begin work to raise Rt. 261 between 9th Street and the Anne Arundel County line. Please be aware that you may see work in this area as early as next week. During this stage of the project, you may encounter one-lane road closures.
