Frederick City considers changes to downtown truck route
Frederick Citys transportation committee recommends moving the downtown truck route from East South and South Market streets to reduce noise and pollution. The plan asks the state to reroute westbound trucks over three quarters of a ton to East South Street exit, remove South Market and South streets from the truck route, and include East South Street between the highway and South Wisner Street. Police Chief Richard J. Ashton notes the changes would steer trucks through industrial areas rather than residential blocks.
