Construction of the Red Line was planned to start in 2015 and finish in 2022, with a cost expected to be at $2.9billion.
Major connections include the MARC Penn Line (commuter rail) at West Baltimore MARC and Bayview MARC (infill station), the Baltimore LRT at Howard Street/University Center, and the Baltimore Metro Subway at Inner Harbor (via a pedestrian tunnel to Charles Center Station).
A tunnel with 5 underground stations would pass by/through the neighborhoods of Poppleton, Hollins Market, Downtown, Jonestown, Little Italy, Harbor East, Fell’s Point, and Canton.
