The southbound bore of the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel (I-895) will continuously close through the weekend.  Two-way traffic (one adjacent lane in each direction) will operate in the northbound bore.  We remind motorists to obey speed limits and stay in your lane. 

WHEN:  Weather permitting, the southbound bore will be closed from Friday, March 6, at 8:30 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. Monday, March 9.

WHY: Toll Dollars At Work:  Crews will be performing work on the drainage system.  The closure is part of the Maryland Transportation Authority’s (MDTA) three-year, $189 million I-895 Bridge Project to replace the 60-year-old bridge and Holabird Avenue exit ramp north of the Harbor Tunnel and to rehabilitate the Harbor Tunnel.  The project began in April 2018 and is expected to be completed in summer 2021.  In the coming weeks, the southbound bridge will close and two-way traffic will operate on the newly rebuilt northbound bridge with one lane open in each direction.
