WHY:                                                             
Each fall, MDOT presents its draft six-year capital program to every county and Baltimore City for review and comment. MDOT then prepares a final budget to present to the General Assembly in January. The Hogan Administration's six-year Draft FY 2018-2023 CTP invests $14.7 billion in Maryland's transportation network. Above and beyond this funding, the Maryland Transportation Authority is investing another $2.6 billion in our toll roads and bridges.
