MTA LocalLinks Detours for Campus Health Event

MTA routes 32, 37, and 76 detour around CCBC Catonsville for Bladder Cancer Walk event

MTA LocalLinks Routes 32, 37, 76 Face Detours

Three Maryland Transit Administration LocalLinks routes will detour around CCBC Catonsville this weekend for a community health event. Routes 32, 37, and 76 will operate on modified paths in both directions starting April 25 at 8:30 a.m., MTA officials said. The detours accommodate the Bladder Cancer Walk at the college campus and affect service between Catonsville, Old Court, UMBC, and downtown Baltimore.

Event Requires Route Modifications

The temporary detours stem from the Bladder Cancer Walk, a community health awareness event at CCBC Catonsville, according to transit officials. MTA typically reroutes buses around large campus events to ensure pedestrian safety and accommodate road closures for participants. The three affected routes serve key connections in Baltimore County, linking residential areas with educational institutions and downtown employment centers. Officials classified the service change as event-related, with the detours designed to maintain service while supporting community activities.

Three Routes See Service Changes

Route 32 connects Catonsville with Patapsco Station, while Route 37 runs between Old Court and UMBC/Catonsville. Route 76 provides service from CCBC to downtown Baltimore. All three routes will operate on detour paths in both directions during the event period, MTA confirmed. Officials didn't specify the exact streets affected by the detours or which stops might be temporarily relocated. The agency said riders should expect possible delays beyond normal travel times while buses navigate alternate routes around the campus area.

Detours End Saturday Afternoon

The route modifications take effect Friday, April 25 at 8:30 a.m. and continue through Saturday, April 26 at 12:30 p.m., according to MTA. Normal service patterns will resume once the detours lift Saturday afternoon. Officials said the timing aligns with the Bladder Cancer Walk schedule at CCBC Catonsville. The agency typically restores regular routes immediately after events conclude and roads reopen to bus traffic.

Riders Should Plan Extra Time

Passengers using routes 32, 37, or 76 should allow additional travel time during the detour period, transit officials said. Those with time-sensitive appointments may want to consider alternative routes or earlier departures. MTA advised riders to plan for possible delays while buses operate on modified paths. Moovit provides real-time bus locations and updated arrival times for all LocalLinks routes during service changes, helping riders adjust their travel plans around temporary detours.
