APG Marks BRAC Infrastructure Milestone
Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown joined other elected officials at Aberdeen Proving Ground.
Elected officials celebrated the completion of the MD Route 715 interchange with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Monday afternoon at Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG).
"Today we are announcing the completion of the first BRAC roadway project here in Harford County," Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown said.
The $33 million project began in 2010 and was completed this summer.
It involved widening MD Route 715 from four to six lanes between the Amtrak bridge and the APG Main Gate as well as improving the US Route 40 interchange.
Said Brown: "A lot of good work has been done."
Other elected officials who spoke included Aberdeen Mayor Michael Bennett, Harford County Executive David Craig, Maj. Gen. Robert S. Ferrell, Col. Gregory R. McClinton and State Highway Administrator Melinda Peters.
