7:40 a.m ., 9/12/25: An accident has closed westbound Route 50 in Annapolis near Route 450. This will cause delays in students being transported to school this morning, most notably in the Annapolis, Broadneck, and South River clusters. At this time, all buses will make all stops but there will likely be delays in getting to some stops. Families transporting students to school in those clusters this morning and staff traveling to schools in those clusters should allow additional time for travel.
