CHANGING TRAFFIC PATTERNS ON I-95 IN BALTIMORE CITY THIS WEEK

4right

WHAT: Weather permitting, all traffic lanes will shift to the right on northbound I-95 between Caton Avenue (Exit 50) and Russell Street (Exit 52).

In addition, all traffic lanes will shift to the right on southbound I-95 between I-395 (Exit 53) and Caton Avenue (Exit 50).

WHEN: The northbound I-95 shift will be in effect by Tuesday morning, March 17, for approximately six weeks.

The southbound I-95 shift will be in effect by Thursday morning, March 19, for approximately six weeks.

WHY: Toll Dollars At Work: The traffic shifts are part of the Maryland Transportation Authoritys (MDTA) two-year, $64 million project to remove and replace the existing concrete deck (riding) surface and roadway joints on mainline I-95 and ramps in Baltimore City.

Stay Alert So No One Gets Hurt! Work-zone speed limits will be reduced to 50 mph on northbound and southbound I-95 once the traffic shifts are in place. Work-zone safety speed cameras coming soon.

The MDTA thanks motorists for their patience.

Serious About Safety: State Highway Administration's Commitment to Safer Roads

This month’s Serious About Safety message comes from State Highway Administrator (SHA) Will Pines, who highlights SHA’s continued commitment to building a strong safety culture and supporting MDOT’s overall safety mission. As we move through the summer travel season, roads across Maryland are busier than usual, making it especially important to stay alert, plan ahead, and make safe choices behind the wheel.

July is Roadside Traffic Safety Awareness Month, a reminder that anyone can find themselves stopped along the side of the road unexpectedly, whether due to a disabled vehicle, a crash, emergency responders, or maintenance crews. In these situations, drivers are encouraged to slow down, stay alert, and move over when it is safe to do so. Learn more about Maryland’s Move Over Law, roadside safety, and real-time traffic updates through SHA’s CHART (Coordinated Highways Action Response Team) and MDTA's Bay Bridge website.
