A Maryland Roads Commission spokesman said no funds exist now for a new four lane Route 15 from Hansonville to the Maryland line south of Gettysburg. A tentative outline may guide Pennsylvania plans, but Maryland will act only after five current highway projects finish. The traffic count could justify a future four lane, but modernization of present Route 15 north is deemed impossible at this time.
