It was later remodeled in , and wing additions were added in Chesapeake House , opened in after the highway was widened from four to six lanes in , is at milepost 97 in Cecil County.
Unlike the two full service rest areas, which are located in the median, this rest area is located on the shoulders, with separate facilities for each direction of travel. This rest area also features only rest rooms, a tourist information area, and vending machines, in contrast to the full food and fuel options at the two service areas further north. Under the original plans for Interstate 95 in Maryland, the route would not have followed the eastern half of the Capital Beltway from the Woodrow Wilson Bridge to the College Park Interchange.
Instead, it would have exited the District at New Hampshire Avenue MD , following the Northeast Freeway , and after passing through Northwest Branch Park , junctioned I at the College Park Interchange , integrating seamlessly with the existing segment of I at that interchange. This route was canceled in , and I rerouted, after the District government canceled the North Central Freeway , which would have linked to the Northeast Freeway at its southern end and carried I deeper into the District, connecting to the Inner Loop.
The part of I that was completed from downtown Washington to the Springfield Interchange in Springfield, Virginia , was then re-designated as I Several proposals were made during the s and s for an East—West Expressway through Baltimore. After nine different proposals were floated, the city's Department of Planning published a proposal of its own in The route in the proposal would have started out as Interstate 70N as it was known then and run due east, crossing the city to the north of the Inner Harbor on an elevated viaduct within the central business district CBD.
All of these proposed routes would have required extensive right-of-way acquisition and clearance. The above routings were eventually further refined and modified and eventually became part of the Baltimore D Interstate System , approved in In this plan, I would run east—west to the north of Fort McHenry , similarly to the above proposal, but would have run along the southern edge of the CBD, passing to the north of Federal Hill and cutting through the historic Fells Point neighborhood.
After crossing the Inner Harbor on another low bridge, it would have followed the Boston Street corridor, crossing the Harbor Tunnel Thruway near to where it does today, then followed the existing I alignment out of the city. The highway would have junctioned Interstate 70N a mile to the northwest of the Inner Harbor , near the eastern terminus of the now-defunct Interstate ; it would have met Interstate 83 in the northeastern corner of the central business district. This routing was little different from the routings proposed in , and was also universally disliked.
By , the Design Concept Team, a multi-discipline group assembled in by the city government to help design freeway routings that would not disrupt the city's fabric, the D System had been replaced by the Baltimore 3-A Interstate and Boulevard System. In the 3-A system, I was shifted south onto the Locust Point peninsula, and eventually constructed there. Interstate was also brought into existence under this plan; it was planned as a freeway spur from I to the south edge of the central business district, connecting to a new route named City Boulevard now known as Martin Luther King Jr.
The 3-A System's result was that I would act as a bypass of the central business district, with I providing direct access. The first portion of I in Baltimore was the southern 0. Kennedy Memorial Highway, completed in By , I had entered Baltimore proper when it was completed between the Capital Beltway and the Baltimore Beltway ; beyond the southern I interchange, the highway came to a dead halt at Alt US 1. By , I was under construction in East Baltimore between its current merge with I south to a partial-cloverleaf interchange with MD Eastern Avenue. With the final opening of the tunnel on November 23, , I was finally completed within the city of Baltimore.
Originally, the toll plaza at the north end of the Fort McHenry Tunnel was to be removed after the city of Baltimore repaid its share of the construction costs of the tunnel. However, the Maryland Transportation Authority lobbied successfully to keep the toll plaza in place to prevent a traffic problem on I within Baltimore. Despite the route's inclusion in the Interstate Highway System in the mids, the construction of the Baltimore and Washington, D. To relieve traffic on U. Route 40 , it was decided to finance construction using a bond issue. Kennedy on Thursday, November 14, , at a ceremony at the Mason—Dixon line.
In , the highway was renamed the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway after his assassination in Dallas, Texas , on November 22, , eight days after President Kennedy was on hand for the opening of the two highways. Between and , the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway was a tolled facility for the entire length of the roadway in both directions.
The mainline toll plaza is situated just north of the Tydings Bridge in Perryville. The southbound toll plaza was removed in , but tolls are still collected for northbound traffic over the Tydings Bridge at this location. Additionally, ramp tolls were collected at many of the interchanges until they were abolished by an act of the legislature in The highway and bridge are maintained by the MdTA. Exits on the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway were originally numbered consecutively, beginning with exit 1.
As a result, Interstate 95 in Maryland had multiple conflicting sequences of exit numbers. In the mids, the exits were re-numbered according to a statewide, mileage-based numbering system, so that they now range from Exit 2 I north on the Capital Beltway to Exit MD on the John F. To allow a seamless connection between the John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway and the then-unnumbered Harbor Tunnel Thruway, a partial interchange was constructed for I to continue south into Baltimore City. However, this meant that I had to enter from and exit to the right, as evidenced by a southbound flyover ramp; a construction project corrected the problem in so that I would proceed straight through the interchange.
Express toll lanes were built from the I merge in northern Baltimore to just north of MD Originally, there were several changes in jurisdiction over maintenance of Baltimore's segment of I North of the Baltimore city line as far as Exit 55 Key Highway , the route was maintained by the city of Baltimore.

Between Exit 57 and the Baltimore city line the route was again maintained by the city of Baltimore. Now, between the southern Baltimore city line near Exit 49, the southern I interchange and the northern Baltimore city line, the route is maintained entirely by the Maryland Transportation Authority. I has at least four incomplete interchanges along its route, with three located within the city of Baltimore. Traveling northbound, the first interchange encountered is the College Park Interchange , exit This was the intended site of the northern crossing of I and I and the northern end of the Northeast Freeway.
South of here, I was to enter the District on the Northeast Freeway, continue on the North Central Freeway and connect seamlessly to the portion of I in downtown Washington that had been completed from there to the Springfield Interchange in Virginia. While the College Park interchange was completed, the Northeast Freeway was never built, resulting in highway lanes coming to an abrupt end on the south end of the interchange. After the project to complete I through the District of Columbia was canceled, I was rerouted onto the Capital Beltway in The portion of I inside the beltway in Northern Virginia and the District of Columbia was designated as Interstate The eastern half of the Capital Beltway was renumbered from I to I Today, all parts of the interchange are in regular use.
The southern end of the interchange now serves as a Park and Ride commuter lot. The other three interchanges are located in the city of Baltimore, a sign of the many successful freeway revolts that accompanied the construction of the 3-A System: All three unbuilt interchanges incorporate interchanges with local roads. The first is located near Exit 50 in Baltimore ; it is the site of the planned eastern terminus of Interstate 70 within the city.
The only remnants of the interchange that remain in situ today are the mainline bridges built to grade-separate I and the exit ramps to and from I, several ramp stubs, and a few grassy abutments. An incomplete flyover bridge once existed as well, but was later demolished. While this interchange was left incomplete, the existing Exit 50, built with extensive collector-distributor lanes due to its proximity to the unbuilt interchange, stands as a more visible sign of what was planned.
The second is located near Exit 57, just to the north of the Fort McHenry Tunnel , and is the site of the planned southern terminus of Interstate Like I's terminus, the remnants here consist mainly of ramp stubs and unused bridges. This interchange, like Exit 50, also serves Boston Street and O'Donnell Street ; unlike Exit 50, I narrows to six lanes within the interchange, as most traffic was expected to diverge onto I north and thus into the downtown area.
The interchange would have been a 3-way freeway-to-freeway interchange, with a full complement of ramps provided for local access to and from Boston Street and O'Donnell Street, to and from both Interstates.
Ontario Highway 401
The third is encountered at Exit 60 and is the site of the southwestern terminus of the Windlass Freeway , a relief route for US 40 part of the route was eventually built and is today part of I The interchange that exists at this site is in partial use, serving the Moravia Road freeway spur; like the other two inner-city locations, ramp stubs mark the site of the ramps to and from the unbuilt freeway.
Due to the heavy use of this route by commuters and through traffic, the Maryland Transportation Authority has begun the process of significantly expanding the highway to increase its capacity. The expansion plans are divided into short, individual sections; in , the MdTA began public studies to determine the best way to expand the highway to meet current and future needs. After four years of study, the MdTA issued its results for Section , the southernmost section.
This segment used to be just eight lanes wide a 4—4 configuration and carries approximately , vehicles per day expected to increase to , vehicles per day by This segment has been expanded to twelve lanes a configuration , with the center lanes designated as express toll lanes. In addition, the interchange between the JFK Highway and the Baltimore Beltway at Exit 64 has been rebuilt into a more orthodox stack interchange , [25] removing the left entrances and exits as well as the unique carriageway crossovers on I the carriageway crossovers on I there remained, but those have since been removed as well.
The interchange at Exit 67 MD 43 has been significantly modified from its former cloverleaf configuration, and the interchange at Exit 62 was also reconfigured so that I is now the straight-ahead route instead of I, thus eliminating the need for southbound I traffic to weave to the right and cross over. This segment is also currently eight lanes wide a 4—4 configuration as far as Exit 77 MD 24 , and is currently six lanes wide a 3—3 configuration between Exit 77 and Exit Like Section , this segment will likely be widened into a configuration as far as Exit 80 MD Between Exit 80 and Exit 85, the remainder will likely be widened from a 3—3 configuration to a 4—4 configuration.
While the MdTA has not yet finalized plans for this segment, the MD 24 interchange was improved, with the interchange improvement project completed in Plans for its widening are described above. This segment is six lanes wide a 3—3 configuration and is likely to be widened into a 4—4 configuration. This segment will require major reconstruction of the Millard E. A study is currently underway to consider adding a new lane on each side between I and I This would be done by constructing new inner shoulders on the median and converting the existing inner shoulders to high occupancy vehicle lanes that would be open to vehicles with three or more occupants, hybrid and electric vehicles , emergency vehicles , and other official government vehicles.
The MdTA , at the request of an assortment of elected officials, [26] completed a study which examined a relocation of the northbound toll barrier, which is currently just north of the Tydings Bridge crossing of the Susquehanna River at Perryville. The study concluded the barrier should remain where it is, because "relocating the toll plaza from the current location would result in significant diversion from I onto local Cecil County roads" [27] and "the closer the toll plaza goes to Delaware the greater the diversion there is to local roads, the greater the revenue loss to the state toll operator MdTA, and the more travel there is on slower, less safe surface arterials.
