Narrative:

On climb out of bwi we were given a clearance from ZDC (frequency 134.5) to climb from 14000 ft to 17000 ft. We were advised of VFR traffic at 2 O'clock and 15 mi at 15500 ft descending. This would have not been a problem but we were over rbv fix and our flight plan called for us to make a right turn from a heading of 058 degrees to a heading of 081 degrees. This put the aircraft on a diverging course and altitude. The TCASII gave an RA which we complied with and advised ATC of it. We passed approximately 500 ft below and 2 mi horizontal from the aircraft.
