The grant will fund engineering and design services, including environmental documentation, for the New Market park and ride lot, to be located in St. Mary’s County.
Funds are also being provided for the construction of the 419-space Prince Frederick park-and-ride lot in Calvert County. This project will include landscaping, light fixtures, fencing, storm water management, bus shelters, bicycle racks, and telephone service.
