$100 million for construction of an interchange at Kerby Hill Road and Indian Head Highway in Prince George's
.

That is the first intersection....which is in the design stage but will now go into the construction phase. Also that amount doesn't include Federal dollars which I am sure they are pursuing. The other intersections are not that far along but I am sure they will be ramping up if they are breaking ground on the first one .The rest will probably follow over the next 3 to 5 years

Seems like we've been waiting since the dawn of time to get weekend service on the Penn Line. Finally! I could definitely take advantage of this service. I'm sure it's popularity will outweigh the cost (eventually).

MARC Adds Weekend Service Between Baltimore And Washington

It's great news- here is another article about-seems to have more info about it than the 1st one---
if you do not want to wait for the new Marc service to start to see an Orioles or Ravens game you can take the 201 commuter bus from Gaithersburg park and ride and Shady Grove Metro to BWI and then take the light rail from BWI to Camden Yards -I did that a couple of times a few weeks ago (it works best for daytime games).

210 is pretty much straight forward. Rt 5 intersection at SMH could use lots-o-love.
