Additionally, motorists traveling southbound on GWMP will not be able to use the Turkey Run loop to cross the parkway and access northbound GWMP. Motorists traveling on Turkey Run Loop Road will only have access to southbound GWMP. Detour information:
To reach Turkey Run Loop Road: Northbound GWMP drivers should continue to I-495 south, turn at Georgetown Pike, and proceed to southbound GWMP to Turkey Run Loop Road.
To leave Turkey Run Loop Road: All visitors must exit via southbound GWMP. Motorists who need to access northbound GWMP, should continue to Route 123 to access northbound GWMP.
Motorists are reminded to proceed with caution through work zones, watch out for crews and road debris, and observe the speed limit.
