Cost of the Paul Sarbanes Silver Spring Transit Center Balloons to $120 million



Silver Spring - The cost of the Paul Sarbanes Silver Spring Transit Center has now ballooned to $120 million, yet eight years after its groundbreaking ceremony, it's still not even ready to support the weight of a bus. Where is the accountability for this disastrous project that is now years behind schedule and millions of dollars over budget? County Executive Ike Leggett, County Council President Craig Rice, and General Services Director David Dise need to answer questions about their mismanagement of this fiasco. Mr. Rice should immediately call for hearings on the transit center, while Montgomery County States Attorney John McCarthy at the local level and the United States Attorney's office District of Maryland, Rod J. Rosenstein at the federal level need to examine how the contract was awarded, and how it was executed.
