Hello Reddit!
I was appointed by Governor Wes Moore last December to serve in this role, but I’ve worked in the transportation field for more than 30 years. Previously I had the honor to serve at the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration.
The Maryland Department of Transportation is responsible for maintaining our state’s transportation system – and it’s more than just roads! Our responsibilities also include the Port of Baltimore, the Francis Scott Key Bridge Rebuild Project, BWI Thurgood Marshall International Airport and our state’s public transit system, including MTA’s service in Baltimore and the upcoming Purple Line. We also oversee the Motor Vehicle Administration, which helps our residents through vehicle registration and driver licensing. We are Serious About Safety for all users of our system, and we want to ensure transportation in Maryland is sustainable into the future.
I am eager answer your questions about transportation (or where my favorite place to run in Maryland is!).
Proof:

I’ll start answering questions at 12 p.m. on Monday, October 5th, and plan to stick around for about one hour.
AMA!
EDIT (12:10 p.m.): Hi, I'm Katie and look forward to answering your questions!
EDIT: (12:37 p.m.) We are answering questions. There was a little glitch but the mods are working on fixing that. Our answers should appear soon.
EDIT: (1:00 p.m.) Thanks everyone!

Patuxent Research Refuge in Laurel is the only wildlife refuge in the United States established to support wildlife research. Fortunately, the public can explore the refuge and share it with scientists. Explore the National Wildlife Visitor Center, plus 13,000 acres and 30 miles of trails that wind around ponds, wetlands, and through forests. https://chesapeake-inspired.com/walk-on-the-wild-side-at-patuxent-research-refuge/

Hello! I completely forgot about the MD Renn Fest this year, and was going to try to go but I do see that there is a waitlist for this weekend and next weekend.
I am planning to put my name on the waitlist, but wanted to be prepared before I do.
For those that use a wheelchair, is it difficult using one on the terrain at the MD Renn Faire? I am a newer wheelchair user and have only used it once before (as I have been using other motility aids like a cane, crutches, knee scooter, etc.) A wheelchair is the best option for me to reduce pain compared to the others when there is a lot of walking involved.
I have the kind that has the larger wheels that I can push myself or someone else can push it. I have seen people in wheelchairs at Renn Faire and of course those who have strollers. I just wasn't sure how difficult it would be due to the roots/rocks/hills/etc. Like I said, I have almost zero experience using one so sorry if this is a dumb question.
I have no upper body strength since I can't exercise, so I know it would probably be difficult for me to use the wheelchair just by myself (not to mention that I can't get it in and out of the car by myself) but I would be going with someone who can push the wheelchair. I just don't want to ask them to push me if it's going to be too difficult for them.
Thanks for your help!

Congressman Andy Harris says he doesn't owe the student journalist an apology, and doubles down on his incorrect assertion that journalists need two-party consent to record in public, and blames the liberal media for, you know, making a big deal about him not knowing the law.

First time at the new dog park at the route 13 welcome center. A very nice way to help travelers with dogs going to the beach. Our tax dollars well spent.

So I don't know if this is happening to anyone else but for the last 3 weeks I have been getting flooded with calls about roof inspectors and storm damage. These people seem to know my name already and my address. All these numbers are showing up as Maryland numbers. I get these calls like 5-6 times a day now.
How did these people get my address and name. It's very concerning.
My phone number is already on the national do not call list.
My roof is already brand new it's 3 years old as I had solar panels put up in 2023.

I was driving eastbound around 6 PM today and saw 6 or 7 police cars driving one behind the other flashing all their lights. 5 huge buses behind them, then another 4 or 5 police cars following, lights on. Seemed like they were driving pretty fast, never seen an escort that big tbh. Anyone know what it was?
