STRONG WINDS EXPECTED FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY

Posted by: Tamory Winfield

Be prepared for wind warnings, restrictions and the potential for temporary traffic holds at Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) bridges Friday and Saturday. Any decision to hold traffic at a toll facility would be based upon current weather at a given facility. The MDTA will make every effort to keep all of its facilities open as long as conditions are deemed safe to do so. High winds would prevent two-way operations (when one lane of eastbound traffic travels on the westbound span) at the Bay Bridge during Friday's afternoon rush-hour period.
