  • Saltbox Ascension has begun!!! 

Once again, our lovely OSHA yellow boxes ascend back to the DOT mothership on Pulaski Hwy for a much deserved summer off and some much needed repairs. It’s been quite the year, so hoist one for your local box. Shift’s over, friends.

  • When you’re using your friendly neighborhood saltbox, you’ll sometimes find some salting guidance nearby featuring Salt Bae telling you to sprinkle the NaCl judiciously. Why would a sticker lie to a person? Take it easy on the salt and be careful out there! 

Use the 311 app to report your Saltbox Concerns.

Looking for a box? Use the handy Baltimore DOT (@bmorecitydot) map, link in the Bio.
