Why would that matter?

Anyway, it’s not connected to any existing interstate.

Maryland needs to own up to the development and build the infrastructure to support it. That includes a bridge east of Leesburg to pick up all the Maryland tech corridor commuters. They're creating incredible traffic snarls in tiny VA rural roads and towns not meant to see that level of traffic. It ain't VA's problem, but MD is making it VA's problem.


Maryland overall might be, but Montgomery County is not, and Montgomery County is what's across the river from Leesburg.

No, Maryland does not need new highways to Virginia.

I think you have that backwards. Virginia had been begging for a new bridge for decades and Marylanders are the ones who refuse.

Maryland doesn't want those cars and highway begriming its rural area.

When are they going to widen the bypass and run it four lanes to the river? Toll it and get revenue, its a shame it isn't dualized to the Maryland line.
