I-95 at MD 24 InterchangeAs part of the Maryland Transportation Authority’s (MDTA) ongoing $1.1 billion program to relieve congestion and improve travel along I-95 between Baltimore and Harford counties, a new traffic pattern will be in effect on southbound I-95 at the MD 24 interchange (Exit 77) beginning the week of January 19, weather permitting, and continuing through fall 2026. Southbound I-95 traffic will be split — with one lane to the left and three lanes to the right of barrier walls just south of the MD 24 interchange. Signs will guide motorists as they approach the traffic split.

The new traffic pattern will allow crews to continue construction of the new bridge over Winters Run as part of the overall reconstruction of the I-95/MD 24 interchange. Motorists are advised to use caution and slow down as crews will be working behind the barrier walls.

The work zone speed limit on southbound I-95 will be reduced to 55 mph. Automated Speed Enforcement is in effect to slow motorists and help improve safety for work crews, drivers, and passengers. Fines for exceeding the posted work zone speed limit range from $60 to $1,000. Flashing lights will be activated in the work zone when workers are present.

In addition, a new traffic pattern will be implemented on southbound MD 24 at the on-ramp to southbound I-95, with the two left lanes continuing south on MD 24, and the two right lanes exiting to the on-ramp. The on-ramp will be reduced to one lane prior to entering southbound I-95.

Drivers are reminded to slow down, use caution while traveling through work zones, plan ahead, and travel off-peak to avoid delays as this critical work continues.

This project is part of the MDTA’s I-95 Express Toll Lanes (ETL) Northbound Extension Program between MD 43 and north of MD 24 that will help alleviate delays and improve travel along northbound I-95 between Baltimore and Harford counties. In addition to extending the northbound I-95 ETL, the program will replace several bridges that are more than 50 years old and provide new noise walls for adjacent communities.

The I-95 ETL Northbound Extension Program is being constructed in multiple segments. For more information, or to sign up for e-mail notifications, visit mdta.maryland.gov/I95ETLNB/home.html.

U.S. Route 1 (Belair Road)The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration began a new project to improve intersection safety on US 1 (Belair Road) at Reckord Road in Harford County. The work, which includes upgrading the existing flashing traffic signal to a full-time traffic signal, began on Monday, November 17, 2025. The project should be completed in early winter 2026, weather permitting.   

Contractor crews are installing the new traffic signal system and resurfacing the east leg of Reckord Road intersection at northbound US 1. Once that work is complete, the new traffic signal system will be activated to partial operation and then activated to full operation on all four legs of the intersection.    

Contractor crews will work along US 1 on weekdays, 9 a.m.-3 p.m. During work hours, motorists can expect single-lane closures along US 1 in the vicinity of the Reckord Road intersection. Contractor crews will use temporary traffic signs and cones to guide motorists through the work zone.  

The State Highway Administrator’s contractor for the $1 million project is Concrete General, Inc. of Gaithersburg.
