Projects To Curb Excessive Speeding On 2 Roads Highlighted At Meeting

HOWARD COUNTY, MD — A community meeting will be held Oct. 29 at 5 p.m. to discuss a project with solutions to curb excessive speeding along Furnace Avenue and Hanover Road.

The project will implement strategies detailed in the county’s recently updated Howard County Neighborhood Traffic Calming Policy.

The meeting will be held in the Hockley Room at Howard County Library System’s Elkridge branch.

"Neighborhood traffic calming is an important part of our efforts to ensure greater safety and accessibility on residential roadways across our community. Earlier this year, we released our new traffic calming policy for Howard County and invested an additional $500,000 for implementation. Through these efforts, we are committed to working with our community to reduce speeding and promote transportation safety across Howard County," said Howard County Executive Calvin Ball.
