Convoy to Take to Harford County Roads

HARFORD COUNTY, MD – Heavy machinery will travel through Harford County this week, according to the State Highway Administration.

At approximately 9 p.m. Tuesday, a convoy will leave the Vulcan Quarry in the 900 block of Quarry Road, state highway officials said.

The convoy will take MD 155 west across I-95 to MD 161 north to US 1 south to MD 136 north to Dublin United Methodist Church, where the vehicles and machinery will stay until 9 p.m. Wednesday.

On Wednesday, the convoy will leave the church parking lot and take MD 136 north to MD 44 west to MD 543 north to MD 165 north to the Maryland-Pennsylvania state line, where Pennsylvania State Police will provide an escort for the transport's third night, officials reported.

Each night the convoy will be off the road by 5 a.m., according to the State Highway Administration, which said the move is contingent upon weather conditions.

The crane was originally planned to hit the road Monday but the move was postponed due to weather.
