The Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) is preparing for critical maintenance work that will partially shut down the subway system for 24 days this summer.

From July 22 to August 14, the Reisterstown Plaza, Rogers Avenue and West Cold Spring Metro Subway stations will be completely closed for maintenance of critical components of the rail system. Full service will resume on August 15. Service will continue between the following stations:

Owings Mills to Milford Mill and Mondawmin to Johns Hopkins Hospital. Maintenance work will largely include reconstructing three interlockings. During the partial shutdown, the MTA also will perform additional rail replacement, track maintenance, station improvements and cleaning.
