Construction of this historic project could begin as early as 2012, pending review and approval by the Federal Transit Administration and a funding plan agreed upon by the state and federal government. Mayor Dixon is bringing together the resources and expertise of many different city agencies to help the Maryland Transit Administration develop the best possible Red Line alternative for the region. Community activists, transit experts and business leaders from around the country will lead workshops that demonstrate how Baltimore can leverage the Red Line project for neighborhood revitalization, job creation, minority business participation and environmental preservation. Members of the Mayor’s cabinet, city elected officials, representatives from the Maryland Department of Transportation, and Congressman Elijah Cummings are scheduled to participate.
