Driving over the US 522 bridge, you might not notice it, but there is work being done to the bridge as you drive over it every day.

On the underside of the bridge and substructure, crews are doing concrete repairs to the piers and north abutments at the north side of the bridge, said MDOT State Highway Administration Spokesperson Danny Allman.

That part of the bridge runs from Berm Road to the Hancock side of the bridge, he said.

No traffic on the bridge, or Western Maryland Rail Trail will be impacted as all repairs and access are from the underside of the bridge.

Allman said the repairs are expected to be completed by June 30, weather permitting.
