Hatem Bridge Cleared after Traffic Tie-Up

A disabled vehicle on the Hatem Bridge Monday during rush hour caused traffic to back up on the eastbound side of the bridge, according to the Maryland Department of Transportation.

First responders were on the scene at approximately 5:45 p.m. and eastbound traffic—headed toward Perryville—was backed up to Ontario Street in Havre de Grace.

After the vehicle became disabled at 5:25 p.m., two eastbound lanes had been closed; by 5:57 p.m. the Maryland Department of Transportation said the scene had cleared and all lanes were open.
