Phase 1 South: #AmericanLegionBridge I-270 to I-370 offers multimodal choices and benefits for all. There is no one travel solution to improving regional congestion – all modes need to be considered, allowing people to choose what works best for them.

Major pipe failure looked small on surface of SB I-270, but it was only the tip of the iceberg. Damage underneath was not visible to drivers but is 20 ft wide, 15 ft long & 12 ft deep. Crews are installing new 80-ft pipe w/a focus on your safety. #mdotcares #mdotsafety #mdtraffic

ALERT - Montgomery County - Emergency road work closing two right lanes on SB I-270 just prior to I-370. Motorists, expect major delays! Until further notice, use MD 355 as alternate route. For a look at live traffic cameras, visit chart.maryland.gov//. #mdtraffic #mdotnews
