US 50 over Severn River expands to 4 lanes
WASHINGTON — There’s some good news this Monday for commuters along U.S. Route 50 east of Annapolis, Maryland.
The eastbound lanes of Route 50 over the Severn River expanded from three lanes to four Monday morning.
This comes a month ahead of schedule.
The Severn River bridge has become the biggest traffic bottleneck along Route 50 for anyone heading into Arnold and beyond to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
The state reduced the width of each lane of traffic on the bridge from 12 feet to 11 feet, and then reduced the space between the eastbound and westbound spans of the bridge.
The fourth lane will now connect the on-ramp from Rowe Boulevard to the exit for Maryland Route 2 on the other side of the bridge.
See a live traffic feed of the newly opened lane.
