Maryland Transportation Department officials have been briefed on the report but declined to comment yesterday because they were continuing to review it, spokesman Jack Cahalan said.
[an error occurred while processing this directive]In a letter to Gov. Martin O'Malley (D) last week, Leggett criticized the state's draft BRAC action plan for what he said was a failure to list specific projects designed to address "Maryland's only urban BRAC."
The state must "make sure that this BRAC does not fail because a wounded warrior or a surgeon cannot get to the hospital because their ambulance is mired in gridlock," Leggett wrote.
Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown (D) said yesterday that the state is "well aware of the needs" in the county.
The $450 million increase in transportation funding approved in the special session, he said, means "we are going to see additional transportation projects funded" for the medical center area in the governor's budget blueprint next month.
