I-95 South To Be Widened Near MD 24, Maryland House

HARFORD COUNTY, MD — Upgrades are coming to a stretch of Interstate 95 south in Harford County, according to the Maryland Transportation Authority. The agency's board approved the continuity of four lanes on I-95 south between the exits for MD 24 and Maryland House.

Officials said the $58 million project is designed to eliminate congestion in an area where currently, the highway goes from four lanes to three then back to four.

According to the Maryland Transportation Authority, this stretch of I-95 is one of the top 10 bottlenecks in the state on weekends.

Having four lanes in this section of highway is expected to reduce congestion and save drivers from spending their time in traffic.

Patch has asked the Maryland Transportation Authority when the work will begin and has not yet heard back.
