The Joint Venture team received the “Notice to Proceed” from the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration.
  
  Contract B will connect Georgia Avenue (MD 97) to MD 29 in Montgomery County, Maryland. Contract B will consist of approximately 7 miles of new controlled access, six-lane, tolled roadway and two interchanges. The work includes mainline ramps, cross roads, utility relocations, bridges, retaining walls, and more.

  ICC B is the third of five contracts being let to create the $1.5 Billion 18.8 mile Intercounty Connector that will ultimately connect the I-270 corridor in Montgomery County, MD to the I-95/US1 corridor in Prince George’s County, MD. Wagman was part of the Joint Venture team which was previously awarded ICC A, the Intercounty Connector from I-370 to Georgia Avenue (MD 97) which is currently being constructed.
