Notice on Behalf of Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration

The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) is advancing the development of a new American Legion Bridge and expanding multimodal transportation options along the I-495 and I-270 corridor. As part of this initiative, MDOT SHA will conduct field work in Virginia to gather data and identify environmental features. The scheduled field investigations include:


  • Tuesday, July 16 (rain date: Tuesday, July 23): Field staff will perform survey and wetland delineation activities to identify the existing wetland boundaries and update the data. All work will be within the existing VDOT right-of-way along Live Oak Drive and I-495.


Project staff will access sites from Live Oak Drive and be dropped off and picked up to minimize disruption to the community. During these times, you may observe staff along Live Oak Drive, within nearby VDOT right-of-way, on the Potomac Heritage Trail, or in the Potomac River.


For any questions or concerns, please contact the American Legion Bridge and 270 Corridor project team at 410-637-3300 or 833-858-5960, or email ALB270@mdot.Maryland.gov.
