Watkins Mill Interchange (Exit 12) Getting Closer

UPDATE: Per a sign on I-270 South, exit 12 will open on or about 6/8/20.

 

Exit 12, Watkins Mill Rd, is getting closer!

The I-270 at Watkins Mill Road Interchange project is an $85 million project for the Maryland State Highway Administration to relieve congestion on one of Montgomery County’s most congested corridors.

Construction plans have included a new interchange on I-270 consisting of 14 structures, including a five span bridge over I-270 and a two span bridge along an off-ramp.

The exit is expected to open by this summer.
