THE CITY OF FREDERICK
ANNUAL RESURFACING PROGRAM

Frederick, MD --- Please be advised that the City of Frederick Street Maintenance Department will be closing the west lane of North Bentz Street from Dill Avenue to West 2nd Street to excavate and repair the gutter in this area. This closure will be in effect from Monday, October 9, 2006 through Friday, October 13, 2006. This maintenance work is part of the City of Frederick Annual Resurfacing Program.

We regret any inconvenience this may cause in your travels and thank you for your cooperation.

IMPACT TO AREA:

The lane closure will be from the start to the completion of the project so there will be traffic delays due to bottlenecking at the Dill Avenue intersection. One lane of traffic will be maintained throughout the operation with occasional short term street closures to move materials as needed.
