I-95 Section 100, Segment 1
I-95/I-895 Interchange
Owner: Maryland Transportation Authority
Location: Baltimore County, MD
Expertise Provided: Interstate Roadway & Structure, Utility, Noise Abatement Design, Drainage and Landscaping

The Section 100 project objective was to improve access, mobility and safety for local, regional, and inter-regional traffic, including passenger, freight, and transit vehicles along I-95 in Baltimore, MD. As part of a Joint Venture, Century Engineering was selected to provide comprehensive engineering and design services for the design of Segment 1, starting south of the I-95/I-895 Interchange to south of Kenwood Avenue. Work includes reconstruction of approximately 3.6 miles of I-95/I-895 including the I-95/I-895 Interchange having a 1,600-foot long I-895 General Purpose Lane steel curved girder (280-foot max. spans) ramp structure; dual, 1,900-foot long, steel girder (285-foot max. spans) Express Toll Lane structures carrying I-895 over I-95 and Moores Run; replacement of I-895 GP bridge over Moores Run; replacement of Moravia Road and Moravia Park bridges over I-895; extension of Chesaco Ave. bridge over I-95; and about five miles of retaining and noise walls.

Challenges Encountered:
  • Work on the initial contract was performed on an accelerated basis and included several bridges and over a mile of widening the north bound I-895/I-95 General Purpose Lanes. The design of this contract, containing over 680 drawings, was completed for advertisement in seven months.
  • Critical to the success of the project was the development of the phased MOT to coordinate construction activities with other on-going construction and traffic control schemes along the I-95 and I-895 for Section 100 corridor. Existing number of traffic lanes are maintained at all times during construction.
  • Project required extensive coordination with the Authority and the General Engineering Consultant (GEC), City of Baltimore, Baltimore County, utility companies, and designers of other Segments.
