Road Closure on Rosemont Avenue at Military Road for Annual Street Resurfacing
Detour will be in Place
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Frederick, MD – As a reminder, beginning at 7:00 PM on Friday October 21st, the eastbound lanes of Rosemont Avenue will be closed for major road repairs. The road repair work is estimated to be completed within 24 hours of the start time (approximately 7:00 PM on Saturday, October 22nd).
Eastbound traffic will be required to detour down Montevue Lane for the duration of the repair. The westbound traffic will not be affected and access will be available for all business from the westbound lane.
The contractor will begin excavating the two lanes with an asphalt-milling machine. Once milling is completed, there will be minor detail excavating and prep work. A concrete road surface will be placed into the excavated area and finished. Once it has been determined that the concrete has cured properly road marking will be installed and traffic will be re–introduced to the area. There will be dusty conditions during the milling process and some noise.
