BW Parkway connects Maryland commuters to the Baltimore-Washington International Airport, to both the MTA and MARC commuter rail lines and to the Washington and Baltimore suburbs. The Parkway was originally designed to give motorists an enjoyable, park-like driving experience. Our goal is to keep the BW Parkway a safe place to drive, while preserving the aesthetic scenery that presents such a grand entrance to our nation's capital. This Baltimore-Washington Parkway reconstruction project speaks to President Clinton's commitment to rebuild America. Our investments today will build a strong transportation system that will take us into the 21st century.
Transportation is about so much more than concrete, asphalt and steel.
It is about people and their pursuit of happiness. It is about getting people to work, to school, to recreation, to an enhanced quality of life. The completion of this restoration project will do that and more for this great state. Working with Congressman Hoyer and the Maryland Delegation, we will continue to build a safe and efficient intermodal transportation system that will carry the people of Maryland into the 21st century.
