Future
The 1951 bridge over the Potomac River between McCoole and Keyser is presently being replaced. Construction on the new bridge, which will be located immediately to the east of the present bridge, began in 2010 and is expected to conclude in 2013. A study is underway concerning upgrading or relocating US 220 between I-68 and the Potomac River. The proposed routing would involve MD 53 between I-68 and Cresaptown, and is part of a larger study of a highway to connect Cumberland with Corridor H near Scherr, West Virginia.
