Old Stockbridge Culvert Repair Underway

Howard County officials expect the repair on Old Stockbridge Road to be complete by late spring.

ELLICOTT CITY, MD - From Howard County Government: A Howard County construction project to replace a failed culvert storm drain pipe under Old Stockbridge Drive between Whistling Pines Court/Falling Leaves Court and Village Drive in Ellicott City is under way. As part of the project, two collapsing 16’ x 11’ x 150’ steel pipe arches under the roadway will be replaced. Weather permitting, the project is expected to be completed by late Spring 2018.

For the duration of the project, Old Stockbridge Drive between Whistling Pines Court/Falling Leaves Court and Village Drive will be closed completely to all traffic, vehicular and pedestrian. Signs are posted at the project site to advise motorists and pedestrians of the road and sidewalk closure and detour. To access Old Stockbridge Drive east and west of the construction site, vehicular traffic will follow a clearly marked detour using MD 108 (Waterloo Road), Mayfield Avenue and MD 103 (Meadowridge Road).

For questions or concerns about the project, contact Lisa Brightwell, Public Works Customer Service, at 410-313- 3440 or email publicworks@howardcountymd.gov.
