Sliding Hill Road Construction Traffic Alert

Next week the contractor will begin some left lane closures along Sliding Hill Road in the segment between Atlee Station Road and Kings Charter Drive. These closures will take place between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. and are for the purpose of demolishing the old median and building the new. This will go on for 2-3 weeks depending on many factors. Except for times when equipment is being moved in and out, a through lane will be open. These changes are not expected to have major impacts on traffic, but equipment shifts and the delivery of materials will cause some stoppages.
