MD 249 (Piney Point Road) from Thomas Road to Stark Drive -Drainage Improvements -Design-Build

MD 249 (PINEY POINT ROAD) FROM THOMAS ROAD TO STARK DRIVE – DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS – DESIGN-BUILDCONTRACT NO.: SM1235174This project is a Design-Build contract procured using the “Competitive Sealed Proposals” procurement method as defined in the Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR) 21.05.03.This project extends approximately 2 miles along MD 249 (Piney Point Road) between Thomas Point Road and Stark Drive on Saint George Island in Saint Mary’s County, Maryland. The roadway is a low-lying minor collector with elevations ranging from approximately 2.0 to 4.7 feet above sea level across the four (4) project sites, making it highly susceptible to tidal inundation, wave action, and shoreline erosion due to its location between the Potomac and Saint Mary’s Rivers near the Chesapeake Bay. Projections indicate that by 2045, inundation could occur up to 226 times per year, increasing risks to roadway integrity, residential access, and emergency response.To address these challenges, the Design-Build effort will focus on implementing targeted, constructible roadway and living shoreline solutions at the most vulnerable segments of the roadway as well as erosion hotspots to reduce flood impacts and maintain access to the roadway to the greatest extent practicable and thereby improve overall functionality of the corridor. Improvements are intended to provide consistent access while addressing site-specific drainage, erosion, and shoreline interaction challenges through an integrated and practical design approach.
