INTERVIEW — RICHARD PARSONS — Transportation policy advocate and Vice chairman of the Suburban Maryland Transportation Alliance

New coalition wants a better ride for I-270 commuters
Richard Parsons, vice chairman of the Suburban Maryland Transportation Alliance, a business and civic advocacy group with parallel interests, said the new coalition welcomes the plan presented by Gov. Larry Hogan (R) to award $100 million for innovative congestion management programs on I-270. The coalition’s theme is that I-270, the main stem of the suburban technology corridor as well as the key route for thousands of commuters headed to and from the region’s core, needs much more help than that.
