Port of Baltimore Safety Zone – Key Bridge Response 2024
One-Way ONLY Transit Opportunity for Recreational Vessels Through the Safety Zone

Transit Area for Recreational Vessels

The Captain of the Port (COTP) has established a transit plan to afford recreational vessels the opportunity for transit through the Key Bridge Response Safety Zone. Traffic will be one-way at a time: on Tuesday, April 16th, OUTBOUND transits will be permitted from 6:30 am to 7:30 am, and INBOUND transits will be permitted from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm. The Unified Command or Captain of the Port may cancel these time periods at any time for safety reasons. Mariners must monitor VHF Channel 16 while transiting the area.

All recreational vessels must follow the rules of the road, stay within the marked channel, and heed directions by on scene patrol vessels.
