There is traffic control there. Have you ever been there when the trucks are coming out? There's traffic control all the way. Granted, it's messed up, but there is.

If you live in Calvert, why are you so worried about St. Mary's County? I just don't get it.
I don't want your tax dollars going to support the non-profit either. That's why I suggested that the Commissioners use their imagination, go to the State or benefactors. I wouldn't want to saddle a non-profit with that costly repair either, and it is a county building. There are grant funds for these types of problems but a lot of Boards just won't look or don't have time to look for them. We have the same problems in Calvert.

I work for Raleigh Management at Hickory Hills. I've been in and out of that intersection at all times of the day. It's rough. I've even seen a few near misses.

I live in Calvert but I work in St. Mary's. I like St. Mary's. I even considered moving there but I couldn't find a nice house in my price range.

I like St. Mary's but I have to admit I love Calvert...
