I-70 Shoulder Improvements near Saint Paul Road Bridges

under construction

The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration is undertaking shoulder improvements on Interstate 70 at the Saint Paul Road bridges. The project involves paving the shoulders to make them load-bearing, allowing both lanes to remain open during construction by shifting traffic to the new shoulders. The work starts on the eastbound bridge and then moves to the westbound bridge, with lane and shoulder closures during the process. The project is expected to be completed by fall 2027, weather permitting.
