Bridge Repair

Baltimore County will begin repairs to Bridge B-0109 (Old Court Road over Scotts Level Branch) in late February. The work will primarily replace the roadway surface and repair some substructure. Repairs to the two-lane concrete slab bridge are expected to take about six months and cost $700,000. During construction, the road will not be closed.

Information: Email engineering@baltimorecountymd.gov.

New Water Line on Reisterstown Road

Baltimore County is installing a new 36-inch diameter water line on Reisterstown Road between Rosewood Avenue and Pleasant Hill Road. Work on the new supply main, designed to serve the Owings Mills and Reisterstown area, is 98 percent complete. The cost is about $9 million.

Information: Email engineering@baltimorecountymd.gov.

Rehabilitation for Old Court Road Bridge

Baltimore County will begin rehabilitating the 50-foot long Old Court Road Bridge over Bens Run (Bridge B-0237) near Northwest Hospital in late February with preparation and mobilization. The project, which will cost $2 million, will include replacing beams and sidewalks. The start (originally expected to start in November) was delayed by utility relocations, seasonal temperatures and a desire to avoid construction during the holidays. Completion is expected in early 2023. Traffic will be maintained during construction.
