Road Resurfacing Project To Bring Lane Closures On I-270

Project launches net week.

The Maryland State Highway Administration is set to begin a $2.9 million road resurfacing project on I-270 between the Capital Beltway and Old Georgetown Road in Bethesda. Crews will replace the center concrete barrier, clean drainage inlets and re-pave and patch portions of the road, which sees 124,000 drivers daily.

The project will launch next week and wrap up in the summer of 2012, weather permitting. Motorists can expect lane closures during off-peak hours.

On northbound I-270, single-lane closures are planned between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., Monday through Friday.
