SR 0219, Section 035 (Mason Dixon Highway) is located in Elk Lick Township, Somerset County. The project is located approximately 0.8 miles north of the Pennsylvania border with Maryland and 4.2 miles south of Meyersdale, PA. The project consisted of work in three segments on SR 0219. In Segment 0020, project work included realignment of SR 0219 and remediation of a rockfall zone. New concrete barrier was installed at the edge of the southbound shoulder to facilitate an elevated fall zone and protect traffic from striking the rock face. Concrete underpinning was provided in the area of the rock overhangs, which helped to stabilize slopes and mitigate movement of rock. In Segment 0070, project work consisted of realignment of SR 0219 and excavation of a rock slope along the northbound side of SR 0219 in order to provide adequate sight distance along the roadway. A wet detention basin, which is fed by a new ditch along the excavation area, was constructed to accommodate excess runoff created by the removal of the slope. In Segment 0080, project work included excavation of a rock slope near Township Road 325 (Engles Mill Road) to provide adequate sight distance, as well as relocation of a driveway within the limits of earthwork.
