PERRYVILLE — The section of Belvidere Road that travels over Interstate 95 will be closed to traffic from Nov. 6 through Nov. 16, according to the Maryland Transportation Authority. This is part of the construction of the new interchange for I-95. Belvidere Road is being widened to four lanes for the ingress and egress on and off the interstate. ”The work includes improvements to Belvidere Road to accommodate the interchange and larger bridge structure,” an MDTA spokesman said. “The project will replace the existing overpass and construct new ramps connecting Belvidere Road to I-95.” When it was officially launched by then-Gov. Larry Hogan in October 2022, the plan was to have it completed by 2025. MDTA has not announced a new completion date.

Harrisburg, Pa. — An unvaccinated Jefferson County resident has died after testing positive for measles, the Pennsylvania Department of Health announced today. It is the state’s sixth confirmed measles-associated death this year. As of Nov. 4, Pennsylvania has recorded 1,467 confirmed measles cases across 45 counties, with 283 hospitalizations. Of those cases, fewer than 1% (five people) were vaccinated. The deaths involve two residents of Jefferson County, three of Lancaster County, and one of Mifflin County. The department is not releasing further identifying details to protect the family’s privacy. It also noted that a reported death of a Franklin County resident in October does not yet meet the criteria for a confirmed measles-associated death after investigation. Health officials continue to urge vaccination. The MMR vaccine provides about 97 percent lifetime protection after two doses. Since the outbreak began in late April, state health center staff have administered more than 6,800 MMR doses at 241 pop-up clinics, and providers statewide gave more than 56,000 doses in September and over 61,000 in October, climbing well above the typical monthly average of about 25,000. The department is also recommending an early dose for infants 6 to 11 months of age in counties with
