Essex Structural Sewer Rehabilitation
Baltimore County is investing $4.4 million into structurally rehabilitating sewer lines in Essex in the area of Eastern Boulevard, Mace Avenue and Riverside Drive.

Mohrs Lane Bridge
The Mohrs Lane Bridge (Bridge B-0143) over the CSX Railroad, north of Pulaski Highway, was closed in 2007 because of structural deterioration. Demolition was completed by CSX in 2011 and Baltimore County assumed ownership with plans to rebuild the bridge. A new bridge is awaiting the completion of the engineer’s design. The structure is scheduled to be advertised for construction next year. The final plans are almost complete. The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) was approved for this project and the process to acquire the right of way has begun. This bridge will be part of the future Campbell Boulevard Corridor.
