GOVERNOR HOGAN OFFICIALLY OPENS THE NEW HARRY NICE BRIDGE
Today, we delivered to Marylanders and Virginians a wider, safer, and better Potomac River Crossing on US 301. The new Nice-Middleton Bridge represents what is possible when we work together across all levels of government to get big things done. I want to sincerely thank all of the people who worked day in and day out—including during the pandemic—to complete this new span on budget and ahead of schedule. In Charles County, and in every single jurisdiction all across our great state, we are advancing the highest priority infrastructure projects, and truly changing Maryland for the better.
