MDTA TO HOST ONLINE PRESENTATION FOR
NEW NICE BRIDGE PROJECT ON JANUARY 18
BALTIMORE, MD - The Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) is providing an online presentation Thursday, January 18, 2018 about the New Nice Bridge Project announced by Governor Larry Hogan in 2016 that will benefit thousands of residents that use the bridge every day. The new bridge will replace the current Harry W. Nice Memorial Bridge over US 301 between Charles County, MD and King George County, VA. Construction will begin in early 2020, and the new bridge will open to traffic in 2023.
Visit newnicebridge.com any time after noon on January 18 to view the presentation. The presentation will provide a summary of the project, including how the MDTA has worked to advance the project beyond the original study phase, the project schedule and what you can expect during construction and after the new bridge opens. This effort kicks off the public comment period, which ends February 20, 2018.
