July 15-19: Express Toll Lanes White Marsh Closures

Watch for detours in the White Marsh area.

The I-95 Express Toll Lanes project is slated to cause another round of lane closures. From 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., each day between July 15 and July 19, "all lanes of eastbound Interstate 695 (INNER LOOP) at Interstate 95 (Exit 33) will be completely closed. Traffic will be detoured off Exit 33 to northbound I-95, to westbound MD 43 (Exit 67B, White Marsh Boulevard), to southbound I-95, to eastbound I-695 (Exit 64)," according to a Maryland Transportation Authority press release. The ultimate goal of the project is to attach planned toll lanes to MD 43. When complete, drivers may travel on existing lanes of I-95 at no additional cost, or may use express lanes by paying a toll. The White Marsh portion of the project comes at a $142.6 million …

New Ramps, Signals at I-95, White Marsh Boulevard

Watch for new traffic patterns in the White Marsh area this week.

Construction, along with potential delays and detours, continues on the I-95 Express Toll Lanes project. Two temporary ramps have been installed northbound Interstate 95 to westbound MD 43 (Exit 67B, White Marsh Boulevard), and southbound I-95 to eastbound MD 43 (Exit 67A, White Marsh Boulevard), according to a Maryland Transportation Authority release. They are expected to open at about 9 a.m. on June 27.  "Motorists should be aware that both ramp movements will change to traffic signal intersections; one new traffic signal and two right turn lanes will be at the ends of both ramps. The existing merge ramps will be closed. Portable electronic messaging signs along the exit ramps and White Marsh Boulevard will alert motorists of the new …

White Marsh Volunteer Fire Company has already been dispatched to at least several motor vehicle collisions where the new signals have been installed. I have noticed that vehicles seem to be either not stopping fully at the end of the ramp and are treating it somewhat like a merge onto Rt 43 or they are stopping but making a right into the path of a fast moving vehicle that slams on its brakes …   more ›

I knew the writing was on the wall for the ICC when I starting hearing the radio commercials about how great it is. I have never before heard of a massive advertising campaign to get people to use a new road before. One thing that I cannot understand: where does the express lane end up? Will the cars using it still need to slow down or stop to pay the tunnel tolls? Will one of the tubes be …   more ›
