The two left lanes of northbound Interstate 95 will be closed in Laurel through the Tuesday afternoon commute as crews complete emergency repair work to the deck of a bridge.
The unscheduled work to the bridge that carries I-95 over Stansfield Road shut the lanes just before Scaggsville Road, which is Route 216, in Laurel early Tuesday afternoon. The closures were expected to remain in place through the evening rush hour.
The State Highway Administration warned motorists to expect delays on I-95, Route 295, Route 1 and Route 29.
"Motorists should be prepared for delays along these north/south routes this afternoon and leave extra time for traveling," the agency said.
