Nanticoke Road repairs almost complete

SALISBURY, Md. – The Maryland State Highway Administration anticipates repairs to be done on Nanticoke Road by the middle of the week.

Officials tell 47 ABC that the guardrail was supposed to be installed Monday but the road work was canceled because of the rain. Construction should continue Tuesday and the guardrail installation is expected to take about two days. This is right on time as SHA promised to have it open by Memorial Day.

The road has been closed since October 2018, when major rain and flash flooding caused it to collapse. 47 ABC spoke to the owner of Pure Gas and Deli back in December who says he’s worried about how the road closure is effecting his business.

This is not the first time that this road has been closed. Back in 2016, the exact same area of Nanticoke Road suffered similar weather-related damage.
