I-95 Northbound and Southbound Noise Walls between East Joppa Road and New Forge Road
Two new noise walls were constructed along portions of I-95 between the East Joppa Road and New Forge Road overpasses. Along I-95 northbound, a new noise extends south from the New Forge Road overpass for approximately 3,470 feet. Along I-95 southbound, a new noise wall extends south from the New Forge Road overpass for approximately 5,360 feet. The two new noise walls were constructed near the right-of-way line and were designed to enhance the quality of life for the residents in these communities by reducing the noise from the highway.
The new noise walls:
- Include a stone pattern finish
- Vary in height from approximately 12 feet to 31 feet
The southbound noise wall began construction in April 2019 and was complete in April 2020. The northbound noise wall began construction in May 2019 and was complete in May 2020.
