Three of four infrastructure development teams shortlisted to submit proposals for the first phase of Maryland’s multibillion-dollar program to add privately-financed tolled managed lanes to portions of the I-495/Capital Beltway and the I-270 corridor outside Washington, D.C., have have submitted their technical and financial packages, but one led by Dragados USA has opted not to move forward.

Lead contractors for the three submitters include Halmar International LLC and Itinera S.p.A. for Accelerate MarylandExpress Partners team; Transurban and Macquarie for Accelerate Maryland Partners LLC; and Ferrovial Agroman US Corp for Capital Express Mobility Partners.
