On 9/30, following the transit rally, The Fund's Program Director of Analysis & Engagement, Kwane Wyatt, brought the student perspective directly to the MDOT Consolidated Transportation Plan hearing.

In his testimony, Kwane highlighted the realities many Baltimore students face getting to and from school and called for a transportation system that works for everyone. He urged state leaders to invest in equitable transit solutions by moving forward with the Red Line and implementing Baltimore's Regional Transit Plan (BMORE BUS).

Reliable transportation impacts far more than a student's commute. It affects school attendance, safety, access to jobs, extracurricular activities, and opportunities throughout the city.

Thank you to Charm TV Baltimore for capturing this important testimony.

This The Baltimore Banner story spotlights Maryland’s proposed transportation budget cuts and the impact it could have on Baltimore transit riders, including students who rely on public transit every day.

Recent analysis from Central Maryland Transportation Alliance and Bikemore has raised concerns about reductions in transit funding, the lack of funding for key projects like the Red Line and BMORE Bus Plan, and what those decisions could mean for the region's future. Students, advocates, and community members rallied outside City Hall yesterday morning ahead of the Baltimore City MDOT Capital Budget Presentation to call for investments in a transportation system that connects Baltimore residents to school, work, and opportunity.
