POTENTIAL FOR INCREASED WEEKEND TRAFFIC AT BAY BRIDGE (Ocean City Sunfest Sept. 20-23)

Submitted by Tamory Winfield on Wed, 09/19/2018 - 07:20

Motorists advised to travel off-peak and call 1-877-BAYSPAN (229-7726) for current traffic conditions. 

Due to Sunfest in Ocean City, Md., motorists should expect higher than normal traffic volumes Thursday, Sept. 20, through Sunday, Sept. 23. The MDTA will monitor traffic conditions throughout the weekend and, weather permitting, implement two-way operations (when one lane of eastbound traffic travels on the westbound span) on the westbound span to help alleviate potential eastbound delays. For motorists' safety, two-way will NOT be implemented in inclement weather. The MDTA encourages motorists to travel off-peak. The best times to travel this weekend are:

Thursday and Friday – before 10 a.m. and after 10 p.m.

Saturday – before 7 a.m. and after 5 p.m.

Sunday – before 10 a.m. and after 10 p.m.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
