Interchange and Ramp Patching/Paving Set to Begin Saturday, November 21

(November 20, 2015) –The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration crews will take advantage of forecasted good weather and begin paving several ramps along US 50/301 (Blue Star Memorial Highway) between the Bay Bridge and the US 50/301 split in Queenstown.

Through the end of the year, crews will work at the various entry and exit ramps along the 10-mile corridor, and repair deteriorated sections of pavement by paving or patching. Drivers will be directed to use the next exit ramp.

Travelers should remain alert for work crews and temporary traffic detours. Contractor crews will work during the day, weather permitting. This work is being performed under a $4.8 million multi-location areawide resurfacing contract awarded to David A. Bramble of Chestertown.
 
The Maryland Department of Transportation makes 511 even easier to use – simply choose your region, then prompt “Reach the Beach” for traffic incidents and travel times from east of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge to the Eastern Shore. The 511 travel advisory system provides road conditions and travel times for interstates and major highways throughout the State, including I-70 and I-68 heading west.
 
In addition to 511, a recorded line is available that specifically provides information about the Chesapeake Bay Bridge at 1-877-BAYSPAN and on the web at www.Baybridge.com. Travelers can plan ahead and use EZPass to pay the toll to avoid delays.
