Bridge Repair to Impact Aberdeen MARC Service
Train passengers may face interruptions or delays on select days in March, April.
There will be some modifications to MARC service in late March and mid April as work gets underway on the Bush River Bridge, transportation officials announced.
Due to maintenance on the bridge—which is located between Edgewood and Aberdeen—trains will be single-tracking in that area.
As a result, passengers may experience "minor delays" north of Baltimore, according to a statement from the Maryland Transit Administration.
