Closures expected along Hagerstown's Potomac, Baltimore streets

As a City of Hagerstown contractor mills and paves around the intersection of South Potomac and Baltimore streets the week of Nov. 9, there could be periodic road and lane closures, City Engineer Jim Bender said. Those closures could start Monday, Nov. 9, and might wrap up on Wednesday, Nov. 11, weather permitting. The roughly $750,000 project shortens the pedestrian crosswalk, across East Baltimore Street, which is on the east side of the intersection, Bender said. The project arose from a study done years ago that looked at potential improvements in the Bester Elementary school zone. The project shortened the length of that crosswalk as well as involved rebuilding sidewalks at all four corners so they are compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act, Bender said Friday, Nov. 6. A state grant paid for 80% of the project, while the city covered the remaining 20%, Bender said. Starting Monday, Nov. 9, contractor Huntzberry Brothers will begin milling and paving work along Baltimore and Potomac streets in the area of that intersection. That work will periodically close Baltimore Street and cause occasional lane closures on South Potomac Street, Bender said. One lane of Potomac is to remain open to traffic as
