The Maryland General Assembly has introduced legislation to require localities agreement to move forward. Hogan recently obtained a key vote, on the day the Maryland General Assembly convened, to advance a plan to widen the Beltway from the American Legion Bridge to the Interstate 270 spur, and along the lower part of I-270 between the Beltway and Interstate 370. Construction’s impact on the Potomac River, and houses, schools, parks and other buildings close to 495 remain. Questions remain about the project adding to climate change and lack of inclusion of transit options and bike and pedestrian paths. The project has faced vociferous opposition from residents near the beltway and environmental groups. The next key piece of the puzzle is ensuring that the widening of I-495 just over the bridge in Maryland is done in coordination with the bridge project. Construction could begin in 2022 and would likely take five or six years. The tolls will fluctuate based on congestion, rising to keep traffic flowing freely.
The new bridge will have four express toll lanes, in addition to eight free lanes, as on the current span. The private entity will pay the upfront costs in exchange for future toll revenue meaning toll payers rather than taxpayers will foot the bill. The cost of the bridge project is expected to be $1 billion, and both states will contribute to the cost through public-private partnerships. The agreement is a commitment to work together to create a new, unified Capital Beltway and replace the aging American Legion Bridge. Virginia officials have been cautious about moving forward with the project because without replacing the American Legion Bridge, bottlenecks and congestion will only be relocated, not resolved.Ī major development occurred late last year when Virginia Governor Ralph Northam and Maryland Governor Larry Hogan announced "The Capital Beltway Accord." This MOU will be agreed upon prior to the Board's final award of a vendor contract.Īlso included in this agreement is a commitment by the state to work directly with our local governments to mitigate any environmental and community impacts stemming from the project, as well as a commitment - which will be memorialized in writing - to complete this project with union workers at union wages. This agreement will provide Montgomery and Prince George's Counties with direct transit subsidies from the project's toll receipts, the details of which will be specified in a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the state and the two counties. Rather, that segment, along with other Beltway segments, will be considered by the Board of Public Works in the future. It will not include the segment of the Capital Beltway between Interstate 270 and I-95, which would come with significant community impacts. The first phase of this project will include the American Legion Bridge and the segment that extends from I-270 to I-370.
