Gary Hodge’s piece, “Virginia’s proposed extension of Beltway toll lanes into Maryland won’t solve our mobility crisis,” is loaded with inaccuracies. First, the Interstate 495/270 widening project is not “Virginia’s project,” but was spawned by former Maryland Gov. There are no other highway bridge alternatives. Transurban was prepared to break ground on the Legion widening and replacement in 2023 to meet up with Virginia’s widening when newly elected Gov. Meanwhile, Virginia’s Beltway widening to 12 lanes is moving along, but because the Legion Bridge has only eight lanes, it renders the project almost useless.
