(May 14, 2026) – The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration is beginning work to repair bridge deck joints in each direction of  I-95 bridges over the Patapsco River at the Baltimore / Howard County line. Work on the I-95 bridges, located between I-195 (Metropolitan Boulevard) and the I-95/I-895 split, will begin as soon as Sunday night, May 17, be completed by the end of May, weather permitting.   

Crews will begin by repairing bridge deck joints where needed on the southbound I-95 bridge, followed by repairs on the northbound I-95 bridge. Crews will work overnights, 9 p.m.-5 a.m. Sundays–Thursdays, with single-lane closures starting at 9 p.m. and double-lane closures at  10 p.m. Crews will use temporary traffic signs and cones to control traffic through the work zone.    

The Marksmen Company of Baltimore is the State Highway Administration’s contractor for the $200,000 bridge repair project. The work will be completed in late May, weather permitting.
