Road And Bridge Closings

Baltimore County is required periodically to inspect all bridges on county roads. If these bridges are found to need repairs or replacement, it may be necessary to temporarily close the road and divert traffic.

In addition, roads may need to be closed and traffic diverted due to regular maintenance and improvements.

We attempt to provide up-to-date information on any roads currently closed due to road repair and/or improvement, or bridge repair and/or replacement through notices in all local newspapers and through news releases on the county's web site, under the News tab.

Following is a list of roads currently closed:

Prettyboy Dam Road Bridge

Beginning Monday, February 8, 2010, the roadway and bridge over Prettyboy Dam will be closed for approximately 2 months for repairs. Detour signs will be posted.

Nicodemus Road Bridge

On or about September 7, 2009 the City will be closing the Nicodemus Road Bridge over Liberty Reservoir for reconstruction. The project is expected to last through the summer of 2011. Detour signs will be posted.

Gunpowder Road Bridge

Beginning Monday, July 20, 2009, the Gunpowder Road Bridge (New ADC Map 4232 D2) which spans Georges Run, will be closed in order to completely replace the aging structure. It is expected to reopen in Spring 2010, weather permitting.

Revised February 2, 2010
