Maryland Route 134, better known as Bellona Avenue, is a road in Baltimore City and County that runs from York Road in Baltimore City and through Rodgers Forge in Towson before it reaches Charles Street. Crossing Charles Street, it continues in a semi-circular fashion through Baltimore County's historic Ruxton and Riderwood communities before returning to Charles Street near the Baltimore Beltway.

[edit] Primary uses of road

Bellona Avenue, though home to some historic communities, is a mostly sparsely-developed road, with large houses spaced far apart and some small shops. It is often used by motorists as an alternative to the many lights and high volume of traffic on Charles Street.

[edit] Public Transportation

Baltimore's Central Light Rail line runs parallel and can be from most parts of Bellona Avenue west of Charles Street. However, there are no stops along the line in this area. When the line was initially planned, stops were proposed in the Ruxton and Riderwood communities. But community opposition and low ridership projection resulted in these plans being scrapped.

The only bus service currently available along this portion of Bellona Avenue is on two selected trips of the no. 11 line on weekdays. This area in the past was served by several other bus lines, which were all eliminated due to low ridership.

The No. 11 Line currently provides regular service along Bellona Avenue between Northern Parkway and Charles Street through Rodgers Forge. It is proposed that this will be the route of all no. 11 line trips in this area.
