Dear Constituent,
More than two years ago, President Joe Biden signed into law the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. This legislation continues to deliver transformational investments to Maryland.
I joined my Democratic colleagues in the Maryland Congressional Delegation to announce that $6,652,757 in federal funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law will be invested in Maryland state agencies to make improvements in transportation, health technology, and road safety.
The grants have been awarded to the following projects:
- $1,276,000 for the Maryland Transit Administration to install cloud-based transit signals at 90 intersections on four bus lines in Baltimore.
- $1,610,000 for the Maryland Department of Transportation to collect real-time work zone speed data in the Baltimore region.
- $1,766,757 for the Maryland Department of Planning to deploy drones to make medical deliveries to residents on the Eastern Shore.
- $2,000,000 for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority to develop and pilot an open-source data standard for transit scheduling operations.
These forward-looking, state-led initiatives will integrate promising technological advancements into our infrastructure planning and systems. This announcement is a major victory and I am thrilled to continue to see transformative Bipartisan Infrastructure Law programs come to fruition in our City and State.
