TRANSPORTATION OPPORTUNITIES COMMITTEE
William K. Hellmann, Chair
Formed in June 2000, the Transportation Opportunities Committee identified short-term regional transportation priorities. The Committee prioritized projects, including improvements to roads, transit, and regional transportation assets, such as the Port of Baltimore and BWI Airport. By doing so, the Committee enabled government officials to plan how best to secure support for funding those priorities from the General Assembly. In November 2000, the Committee submitted its report.
