Hoyer, Dutch Ruppersberger, John Sarbanes, Kweisi Mfume, Anthony G. Brown, Jamie Raskin and David Trone (all D-Md.) today announced $31,662,850 in the first round of federal funding to airports across the state from the bipartisan infrastructure law.\n\nThis funding comes from the U.S. Department of Transportation through the bipartisan infrastructure law, which was signed into law by President Joe Biden in November. This funding will help Maryland airports prepare for future growth and better serve their passengers by undertaking a variety of projects to improve safety and operation of runways and taxiways and expand capacity at airport terminals. Airports in Maryland are expected to receive a total of $158 million over the next five years as a result of the bipartisan infrastructure law.\n\n\u201cModernizing our airports will help our state and our communities meet economic demand today and in the future. With this federal support, our Maryland airports will create and maintain high-quality jobs and deliver safer and more efficient service to passengers and regional businesses,\u201d the lawmakers said. \u201cWe worked to advance the once-in-a-generation investment in our nation\u2019s infrastructure because funding like this is crucial to Maryland\u2019s communities and local economies.\u201d\n\nAwardees include:\n\nLOCID\n\nAirport Name\n\nCity\n\nTotal\n\nBWI\n\nBaltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall\n\nBaltimore\n\n$ 25,643,515\n\nSBY\n\nSalisbury-Ocean City Wicomico Regional\n\nSalisbury\n\n$ 1,045,462\n\nHGR\n\nHagerstown Regional-Richard A Henson Field\n\nHagerstown\n\n$ 1,018,873\n\nMTN\n\nMartin State\n\nBaltimore\n\n$ 763,000\n\nESN\n\nEaston/Newnam Field\n\nEaston\n\n$ 763,000\n\nFME\n\nTipton\n\nFort Meade(Odenton)\n\n$ 295,000\n\nFDK\n\nFrederick Municipal\n\nFrederick\n\n$ 295,000\n\nGAI\n\nMontgomery County Airpark\n\nGaithersburg\n\n$ 295,000\n\n2W6\n\nSt Mary's County Regional\n\nLeonardtown\n\n$ 295,000\n\nDMW\n\nCarroll County Regional/Jack B Poage Field\n\nWestminster\n\n$ 295,000\n\nCGE\n\nCambridge-Dorchester Regional\n\nCambridge\n\n$ 159,000\n\nCGS\n\nCollege Park\n\nCollege Park\n\n$ 159,000\n\nCBE\n\nGreater Cumberland Regional\n\nCumberland Heights\n\n$ 159,000\n\n2G4\n\nGarrett County\n\nOakland\n\n$ 159,000\n\nOXB\n\nOcean City Municipal\n\nOcean City\n\n$ 159,000\n\nW29\n\nBay Bridge\n\nStevensville\n\n$ 159,000\n\nThe Maryland delegation has fought for funding to support our local airports throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and has delivered over $100 million in funding to Maryland airports through the American Rescue Plan.
