State opens 2 E-ZPass offices at ends of ICC
With the first segment of the Intercounty Connector scheduled to open in about three months, the Maryland Transportation Authority and the Motor Vehicle Administration have opened E-ZPass offices at either end of the new toll road.
The new offices are located in the MVA's Gaithersbug and Beltsville branch offices, where they will be open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.
The ICC will be the first Maryland toll facility to operate entirely without tollbooths. Tolls will be collected either with E-ZPass or by cameras that will record license plates of vehicles that use the highway. Motorists who don't have E-ZPass will be charged a service fee to cover the cost of billing.
The first segment of the $2.5 billion ICC, from Shady Grove to Georgia Avenue in Montgomery County, is scheduled to open either in late December or early January. The segment between Interstate 95 and Georgia Avenue is expected to open either in late 2011 or early 2012,
