Traffic: Accident on Baltimore Beltway near Eastern Boulevard

As of 9 a.m. Tuesday, traffic was slow on the inner loop of the Baltimore Beltway approaching Eastern Boulevard, due to an accident.

Accidents were slowing traffic on Holabird Avenue and Broening Highway: Route 152 at Pleasantville Road, and Old Taneytown Road at Tyrone Road.

Repair work on a leaking 36-inch water main was causing some lane closures on northbound and southbound Greenmount Avenue between 33^rd and 35^th streets, but cars are getting by.

Some streets around the Washington Monument in the 600 block of N. Charles St. are beginning to have lane closures in preparation for this weekend's Baltimore Book Festival.

There were no major delays reported on Baltimore area mass transit systems.
