Baltimore Beltway project, which saw 6 workers killed in March, enters a new phase. What’s changed?

Months after six construction workers died as the result of a high-speed collision on the Baltimore Beltway, work is ramping up again on the congested road’s median as the state highway department issues changes designed to make the work zones safer. Criminal and safety investigations of the March 22 crash remain ongoing as the new phase begins on the northern section of I-695. Meanwhile, another probe of the Woodlawn work zone recently concluded the job site failed to give motorists proper notice of gaps in the barriers.
