Improvements coming to 12th Street in Laurel
SUMMARY: The city of Laurel is in the process of making several improvements, including the redesigning of 12th Street over safety concerns. The area is home to many residents and is one of the busiest streets, but it is not particularly safe. After a student lost their life a few years back, the city is planning to make the area safer for children crossing back and forth. The three million dollar project is funded through MDOT and the city, and construction is set to begin soon. Mayor Johnny Magee says the project will begin in a design with the engineer for the project.
The project will span from Highway 15 and end at 7th Avenue.
