For the second year in a row, Howard County Executive Ken Ulman made planning for a new U.S. 1 interchange with Route 175 his top priority in a letter to John D. Porcari, Maryland's transportation secretary. Anne Arundel County Executive John R. Leopold also said widening the road that connects the two counties is his top highway priority, especially with the influx of workers expected within the next three years with the relocation of military base personnel.

'I joke that BRAC [the military base realignment] stands for 'Better Rely on Assistance from the County,'' Leopold said.
