Detour Required For Bridge Replacement Project

Drivers should anticipate a detour while crews work on demolishing and replacing a 63-year-old bridge in Brandywine this year.

BRANDYWINE, MD — Demolition and replacement of a 63-year-old bridge in Brandywine will last through the end of the year.

The $6.4 million project on MD 382, or Croom Road, replaces the bridge spanning County Line Creek. The two-lane bridge will be replaced by a single-span concrete bridge and will be slightly wider than the current bridge.

Weather permitting, the project will wrap up by the end of the year and include roadway reconstruction and paving along MD 382.
