As reported by the Baltimore Sun, Governor O’Malley recently held a press conference to announce $160 million in new transportation projects for the Eastern Shore. From the article:

The governor traveled to the Talbot-Caroline county line to announce he had given the green light to begin construction of a $50 million replacement of the 81-year-old Dover Bridge over the Choptank River starting next summer. He also highlighted two other big-ticket construction projects in the Middle Shore region — the replacement of the dangerous intersection of U.S. 301 and Route 304 in Queen Anne’s County with a modern interchange, and a new phase in the widening of Route 404 on the way to the Delaware beaches.
