Maryland transit budget would cut millions from Baltimore, leave D.C. Metro whole

The Baltimore Regional Transit Commission, which began meeting this year to explore structural changes to how decisions get made about Baltimore’s buses and trains, was the first stop on the state transportation department’s fall tour presenting its six-year budget. State officials will visit with leaders and the public in Baltimore City and Maryland’s 23 counties to field questions and solicit feedback on the roughly $19 billion Consolidated Transportation Program, a roadmap for capital spending through fiscal year 2030.
