On the positive side Transportation Enhancements and Recreational Trail funding wasn’t hit as hard as they could have been. And these two funding sources are what the State uses for bike/ped programs so not too bad on that account. (Everyone has to make some sacrifices.)
But Congestion Management and Air Quality a funding source that could be used for bike/ped but currently is not, had $4,235,975.00 rescinded. That’s more then years worth of trails. Ouch!
Keep in mind rescissions come about because States are slow to utilize all their funding. Or more to the point, because of MD’s draconian policies of not allowing the full range of bicycle accommodations to qualify for these funds and by requiring the highest match in the nation an obscene amount of money (at least for bike/ped but way to small to accommodate more cars) has been left to rot.
