It will take place during the early morning hours.
Frederick, Md (KM) If you usually travel Intestate 270 during the early morning hours, here’s heads up. The Maryland State Highway Administration says a contractor on behalf of Quantum Corporation will be installing and performing maintenance on fiber optic cables located underground along I-270.
Work is expected to begin on Wednesday at 9:00 PM and continue through Thursday morning until 5:00 AM.. Crews will be working along northbound I-270 from Md Route 109 (Old Hundred Road) from the Montgomery County line to I-70 in Frederick County, a distance of ten miles. One lane of the highway will be closed while work is taking place, SHA says.
When that’s completed, the contractor will do work on southbound I-270 from I-70 to Route 109.
SHA says the entire project is expected to take two months to complete. Officials say the work schedule will be Sunday through Thursday, 9:00 PM until 5:00 AM.
