Queen Anne’s County Commissioner Jim Moran Named Vice Chair of the Baltimore Regional Transportation Board for FY 2026
The Baltimore Metropolitan Council (BMC) announced the appointment of Queen Anne’s County Commissioner Jim Moran as Vice Chair of the Baltimore Regional Transportation Board (BRTB) for Fiscal Year 2026.
The BRTB serves as the federally designated metropolitan planning organization (MPO) for the Baltimore region. It plays a critical role in coordinating regional transportation planning efforts by working closely with local, state, and federal partners. Through a continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive planning process, the BRTB develops strategies, analyzes data, and oversees programs that improve transportation infrastructure, safety, freight movement, and long-term project funding across the region.
The BRTB is housed within and staffed by the Baltimore Metropolitan Council, which supports regional collaboration among elected officials and stakeholders to enhance quality of life and economic vitality throughout central Maryland.
Members of the BRTB include elected officials from Annapolis, Baltimore City, and the counties of Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Harford, Howard, and Queen Anne’s, along with representatives from the Maryland Departments of Transportation, the Environment, and Planning, the Maryland Transit Administration, and Annapolis Transit. While most members have voting rights, certain state agencies serve in an advisory capacity.
The leadership of Commissioner Moran reflects Queen Anne’s County’s strong commitment to advancing innovative and effective transportation solutions for the entire region.
