Source: CHART, through MileCheck's feed, checked every five minutes and converted to the same format MileCheck uses for all 50 states. Ramp, lane and shoulder closures are listed under the toggle, not as full closures. Closures with a future start date are marked scheduled. Positions are the DOT's; mile markers are approximate.

Report

Labor Day 2026 in Maryland

What the CHART feed carried over the holiday weekend.

Driving across Maryland

I-95 crosses about 110 miles of Maryland, from the Washington area up through the Baltimore tunnels to the Delaware line. I-495, the Capital Beltway, and I-695, the Baltimore Beltway, run on inner loop and outer loop rather than compass directions. US-50 carries beach traffic east over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge toward Ocean City. I-70 and I-68 head west through Frederick and into the mountains of Western Maryland.

What the season does to Maryland's highways

Maryland's weather trouble is spread out. Winter ice on I-68 and I-70 in the western mountains, summer thunderstorms that flood urban interchanges, and high winds on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge that bring restrictions or full stops for high-profile vehicles. On a summer Friday the backup on the approach to the Bay Bridge is reported by milepost. CHART's cameras are live video, most tagged with route and mile.

Maryland facts, with sources

Before a Maryland road trip

  1. Check the map above for anything red on your route, then open CHART for the DOT's own detour and restriction text.
  2. Look at the road. The Maryland cameras show the pavement itself, and most carry the mile marker.
  3. For the long haul, the I-95, I-70 and I-81 corridor pages carry alerts for every state the route crosses, not only Maryland.
  4. Know how to say where you are. Dispatch, 911 and tow companies ask for the route, the direction and the mile marker. How to report your location on the highway.
  5. Carry the app. The mile marker works offline in all 50 states, and the same CHART alerts show on your route as you drive.

What October looked like

In October 2026, MileCheck's archive of the CHART feed held 201 unique reports, including 80 closure reports and 19 crash reports. The routes with the most reports were I-95, I-70 and I-895. Counts reflect what the feed publishes, so a state whose DOT posts only closures shows only closures. Read the October Highway Report.

Questions, answered

Is the highway closed in Maryland right now?

The map above shows full closures from the CHART feed as red markers, crashes in orange, and weather and hazard alerts in blue and purple. Closures the DOT has posted for a future date are listed as scheduled, and ramp and lane closures sit under the toggle so the list stays readable. The page checks MileCheck's feed every five minutes. If the feed cannot be reached the page says so instead of showing an empty map. For the official list, open CHART.

Where do I check Maryland road conditions?

CHART is the official source, and dialing 511 in most states reaches the same information by phone. This page reads the same CHART feed and adds the Maryland cameras, the corridor and pass pages, and your own mile marker if you carry the app.

How often does this page update?

This page checks MileCheck's feed every five minutes. CHART updates individual reports on its own schedule. Source update times are shown when available.

Does the MileCheck app show these alerts?

Yes. The app shows the same CHART alerts on your route, ahead of your position, with the mile marker you are passing. The mile marker works offline in all 50 states. Live alerts are part of MileCheck Premium, $19.99 a year or $4.99 a month after a 2-week free trial.

Know exactly where you are — live

Your mile marker shows even offline. CHART alerts on your route and the nearest camera are part of MileCheck Premium and need a connection to update. Runs on CarPlay and Android Auto.
