Hatem Bridge traffic to be detoured
Westbound traffic on U.S. 40 will be diverted off the Susquehanna River bridge several nights next week for deck repairs, the Maryland Transportation Authority announced.
Depending on weather conditions, the westbound lane of the Thomas J. Hatem Memorial Bridge will close Monday through Thursday at 8 p.m., reopening at 5 a.m. the following mornings. Crews will be installing and painting the new deck of the nearly 70-year-old structure.
Eastbound traffic will not be affected.
