Commuters, local businesses, Fort Detrick employees and bicyclists and pedestrians all have reason to celebrate as crews finalize the $21.3 million Motter Avenue bridge replacement over US 15 and traffic safety project in Frederick. The project was built through a Federal, State, County and City partnership, with all levels of government providing funding to advance the gridlock-reducing project. To celebrate this partnership, and the end of major construction, Maryland Transportation Secretary James T. Smith, Jr., today joined Congressman John Delaney, Maryland Senator Ronald N. Young, Frederick County Executive Jan Gardner, Frederick Mayor Randy McClement, local officials and residents for a ribbon cutting ceremony at the American Legion Francis Scott Key Post #11, which is located next to the new bridge.
