Power restored to traffic signals after outages at several Baltimore County intersections
Power was restored to traffic signals at more than a dozen Baltimore County intersections after outages were caused by storms over the past few days.
The outage lasted for several hours while Baltimore Gas & Electric (BGE) made the repairs. Officials told drivers to avoid the areas, use alternate routes, and treat all affected intersections as four-way stops.
Strong storms powered through Maryland on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Trees and power lines were knocked down, and thousands of BGE customers lost power from heavy rain and strong wind gusts.
BGE said that at one point, 85,000 customers lost power, with the majority in Baltimore, Anne Arundel and Harford counties.
Here is a list of the traffic signals that lost power:
- Eastern Boulevard and Virginia Avenue (Essex)
