The Traffic Engineering Division designs, installs, and maintains signs using its own forces. We maintain over 95,000 traffic signs, which are inspected via a programmed frequency. However, by partnering with our citizens who report damaged signs, we can provide an even higher level of service.
The Traffic Engineering Division also installs new signs to control the flow of traffic as needed and performs emergency repairs of STOP, YIELD, ONE-WAY, and DO NOT ENTER signs.

Emergency repairs of STOP, YIELD, ONE-WAY, and DO NOT ENTER signs can be requested by calling (410) 222-1940 24/7. A crew will respond within two hours.
To submit a request for all other sign repairs, please call (410) 222-1940 between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Please provide as much specific information as possible; i.e., the type of sign, its location, its condition (damaged or missing), and whether it is a hazard to vehicles or pedestrians. Non-emergency repairs will be handled as workload and weather permits.
