Traffic Calming for Denbury Drive (Correction)
Denbury Drive, between Kirkleigh Road and Searles Road, recently qualified for traffic calming. County traffic engineers are now preparing traffic calming plans, which will be submitted to residents before the end of December.

Water Project on Morse Lane Completed
A new water line has been installed on Morse Lane, between Riversedge Way and Lynhurst Road (ADC Map 45 E4). Begun in August, the new 12" line closes a "loop" in the system, which should improve water quality and add more capacity to the network.
Engineers say that the new line will also make future utility repairs in the North Point area easier and reduce short-term water shut-offs. The project was completed in November and repaving is scheduled for December. The cost engineers say is $900,000.

Day Village, and Shore Road Pumping Near Completion; Lyons Home Finished
Work on the Day Village Sewage Pumping Station (on Avondale Road in Sparrows Point) began in the fall of 2007 and is nearly finished. The station has been rebuilt to raise it above the flood plain at a cost of $1.3 million. Work also began in September 2007 to rehabilitate the Shore Road Pumping Station to the north of Lynch Cove.
To increase capacity and prevent overflows, the County is investing $1.8 million to modernize both the structure and equipment. Work should be completed by December, say engineers, and is now more than 80 percent finished. In addition, construction of the Lyons Home Pumping Station near Peach Orchard Creek has been completed at a cost of $2.3 million.

Ebenezer Road Bridge Now Open to Traffic
The Ebenezer Road Bridge (Bridge No. 294), just north of Bird River Road over Windlass Run, has been repeatedly damaged by high water in recent years and has been replaced. The new bridge, opened to traffic in October, has an increased span to protect the structure from flooding. Work, which began in January and is estimated to cost $1.5 million, will be completely finished before the end of the year.

Pumping Station in North Point Slated for Rehab
Baltimore County is investing $1.2 million to rehabilitate the Bletzer Road Sewage Pumping Station, located between 695 and Back River. Work on the station, which should begin in December, is expected to take about a year.
