GOVERNOR O’MALLEY ANNOUNCES I-95/MD 43 
RECONSTRUCTION UNDERWAY
Project Adds 400 New Jobs to Maryland  

BALTIMORE, MD – As part of the I-95 Express Toll Lanes^SM (ETLs^SM), a $142.6 million project to reconstruct the I-95/MD 43 (White Marsh Boulevard) interchange has begun. Work involves widening I-95, replacing the MD 43 bridges over I-95 and linking the future I-95 ETLs with MD 43.

"The I-95/MD 43 interchange reconstruction is critical to bringing relief along the most congested part of I-95 north of Baltimore – and it’s providing jobs at a critical time for our families and economy," said Governor O’Malley. "Improving this portion of Maryland’s infrastructure has not only created 400 new jobs, it will provide Baltimore County residents and MD 43 motorists access to and from the I-95 ETLs, enhancing operations and safety at the interchange for years to come."

The Maryland Transportation Authority’s (MDTA) I-95 ETLs Project is located along eight miles of I-95 from the I-95/I-895 interchange in northeast Baltimore to just north of MD 43. Once complete, motorists will have the choice to travel the general-purpose lanes at no cost as they do today or pay a toll to use the ETLs, which will be managed for relatively congestion-free traffic flow.
