The St. Maryโ€™s County Department of Public Works and Transportation will begin a pipe replacement project along Wildewood Parkway on or about the week of August 5, 2013.

Improvements will consist of the removal and replacement of the existing culverts, which cross the roadway between Wildewood Boulevard and Holly Hill Lane, and the relocation of underground utilities adjacent to the roadway.

During the project, residents can expect temporary road closures of Wildewood Parkway, between the intersections of Wildewood Boulevard and Holly Hill Lane. A signed detour route is planned around the construction area, which will extend from Smoke Hill Road to Cottonwood Parkway to Airport Road, MD Route 235, and Wildewood Boulevard. Residents may also experience some construction noise in the area during daylight hours. The project is expected to take 15 days to complete depending on weather conditions.
