Baltimore’s Key Highway Extension
Posted (Glen) in Public Transportation, Locust Point on June-11-2007

The much anticipated Key Highway extension (Loop Road) is almost complete.  The extension will connect Key Highway to the tip of Locust Point - at Tide Point.  Apparently the road has been discussed for the last 25 years before the logistics were worked out.  The new road will ease many concerns over traffic problems in Locust Point.

The project already missed it’s published completion date of May 2007.  However, it looks like it could be opening anytime now.  I snapped these photos on Saturday 6/9/2007.

Shocker - like pretty much every other project in the city, or MD, or US… it’s over schedule. the loop raod will be open by late July at the earliest.
