Mohrs Lane Bridge
The Mohrs Lane Bridge (Bridge B-0143) over the CSX Railroad, north of Pulaski Highway, was closed in 2007 because of structural deterioration. Demolition was completed by CSX in 2011 at no cost to Baltimore County, which has assumed ownership and plans to rebuild the span. A new bridge is currently being designed with construction scheduled to begin by late 2019. This bridge will be part of the future Campbell Boulevard Corridor.
