About the Baltimore’s Transit Future Campaign
The Greater Baltimore Committee and Greater Washington Partnership launched the Baltimore’s Transit Future campaign to call attention to the urgent business imperative and need for the Greater Baltimore region to create a world-class public transit system that helps create shared economic prosperity and catalyzes inclusive growth. Since June 2022, more than 70 business, civic, and non-profit organizations, including many of the largest employers in the State, have joined the campaign encouraging regional focus on six priorities:
Address the transit system’s repair backlog and operator shortage;
Establish frequent, reliable transit service to regional job centers;
Support regional coordination, decision making, and funding;
Implement a 10-year rapid transit expansion program;
Prioritize regional rail investment; and
Catalyze equitable development at transit and rail stations.
The time for action is now. The residents and businesses of Maryland’s largest city and surrounding suburbs deserve a world-class transit system. These six strategic priorities will set the course for a more equitable transportation system, making the Baltimore region a more attractive place to live, work, play, and build a business.
