Concrete beams will be erected for the new Annapolis Road Bridge

The Baltimore City Department of Transportation would like to advise motorists that a portion of southbound MD-295 (Baltimore-Washington Parkway) is scheduled to be closed on the weekend of August 28-30, 2020.  This closure of southbound MD-295 is necessary to erect two concrete beams for the new Annapolis Road Bridge.

Beginning at 9:00 p.m. on Friday, August 28, 2020, southbound MD-295 will be closed to through traffic between Bush Street and I-695 with detours in effect, weather permitting.  This portion of southbound MD-295 will remain closed throughout the weekend and will be reopened to traffic by 5:00 a.m. on Sunday, August 30, 2020. 

In addition to the southbound closure, a single lane closure will be implemented along northbound MD-295 throughout the day on Saturday, August 29, 2020 so that the new bridge beams can be set safely in place.  At least one lane of northbound MD-295 will remain open for vehicular traffic during this time.

During the closure, all southbound Russell Street traffic destined for MD-295 will be detoured onto I-95 south.  The weekend closure of southbound MD-295 may cause congestion and delays.  Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead for the closure by allowing additional travel time and using alternate routes.
