Feb. 23-Mar. 23: Forge Road Closed Between Cross Road and Perry Farms Drive

The half-mile stretch of Forge Road between Cross Road and Perry Farms Drive will be closed between Feb. 23 and Mar. 23, officials said. 

Access to this portion of Forge Road will be restricted while the Baltimore County Department of Public Works performs utility construction, County Councilman David Marks and Capt. Michael Balog of the White Marsh police precinct recently announced.

Only local residents will be allowed to pass through the area during the construction period, Marks confirmed.

Drivers can avoid the construction area by driving through the Perry Hall Farms neighborhood, turning from eastbound Forge Road onto Cross Road to Gunpowder Farm Road to Forge Acre Drive to Perry Farms Drive and back to Forge Road.
