@mta.maryland.gov MTA's BMORE Bus plan could be completed in 6 years, but it's on a 10+ year timeline. Baltimore transit riders--especially students--are being left behind. @thefundbalt.bsky.social www.thebanner.com/community/tr...

New train cars will gradually replace the old ones on Baltimore’s Metro Subway throughout 2026. Smoother rides. More reliable service (fewer breakdowns). Better accessibility. Brighter.

The rally last year was a success insofar as over 100 people showed up to fight for better transit in Baltimore, so I have no reason to believe this year won't be at least twice as successful! Please, if you're in the area, consider attending. Free transportation to and from the rally.

We will see you at the Major League Transit Rally in Annapolis on Feb. 2. Better Transit Now is providing free buses from Baltimore for rally attendees. Scan the QR code to reserve your seat.

Transportation impacts health. "Luckily, policies like the Transportation and Climate Alignment Act (TCA) that will be introduced again next year by Delegate Mark Edelson and Senator Shelly Hettleman can help combat these issues." Op-Ed by Megan Weil Latshaw marylandmatters.org/2025/12/12/t...

Brian O’Malley, the president and CEO of the Central Maryland Transportation Alliance, noted that when Moore announced his administration would be restarting the Red Line, a local resident told him to “put shovels in the ground.” www.bloomberg.com/news/feature... 🧵1/3

We learned a lot from your presentation and from the significant q&a with the workshop participants. Thank you for making time and supporting Transportation 101.

At Baltimore City Hall today with advocates from several organizations telling @mtamarylandalerts.bsky.social and MDOT to fund the Bmore Bus Plan.

Due to the fire last week at Howard and Fayette Streets, Light Rail service remains suspended between North Avenue Station and Camden Station. Shuttle bus service is available between these stations. Please plan ahead for your tr... https://mta.maryland.gov/service-alerts/23981

Wide sidewalks, shorter crossings, apartments over ground-floor restaurants & retail, public plazas . . . Bakari Height points out the features that make the Owings Mills TOD a fun, safe & useful place for lots of people. We want TOD near more stations! @mdsierra.bsky.social @baltpop.org

Metro Subway Alert: Train service is suspended between Reisterstown Plaza and West Cold Spring due to Deer Strike. Shuttle bus service is available between these stations. https://mta.maryland.gov/service-alerts/24012

We’d describe it differently. Once the legislature approves final capital programs it’s best to ignore the drafts that preceded them. The last four years Maryland approved the four largest CTP’s in history. The draft CTP proposed this week would be even bigger. www.baltimoresun.com/2025/09/02/m...

Heads up @mta.maryland.gov Metro riders. We need to have a shutdown on Friday evening and Sunday to allow for testing of the new vehicles. We will be operating on Saturday and Metro is a good option to get around during the Maryland Cycling Classic!

Heads up @mta.maryland.gov Light Rail riders - our service is still suspended while Baltimore City stabilizes the buildings impacted by the fire. They have heavy equipment in Howard Street which causes us to have to suspend service from Camden to North Ave.

We’re at the Baltimore Regional Transit Commission meeting. Posting updates here. MTA news. MDOT’s draft 6-year capital budget. The update to the Regional Transit Plan. And more.

Maryland has published the draft capital transportation program. It says how MDOT proposes to spend taxpayer funds on transportation projects over the next 6 years. At $21.5 billion it's Maryland's biggest ever. What will it do for you? mdot.maryland.gov/OPCP/CTP_2026/…

Demand for travel in greater Baltimore is up 25% over the last five years. Maryland has not expanded transit service to offer options to people making those trips.

MTA has dramatically reduced vacancies since the height of the pandemic. MTA has a lower vacancy rate than other MDOT units like SHA, Ports, Aviation, etc.

MTA pay is low compared to peers. MTA delivers service with less staff that peers.
