BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Maryland Gov. Hogan now said Thursday that no one should be going on any public transportation unless they meet certain guidelines.
He also announced he signed executive order to allow trucks to increase their weight limits.
There are also new official restrictions at BWI Airport. Instead of the previous recommendation, it is now mandated that only ticketed passengers should be in the BWI terminal, or badged employees.
The only exceptions being made are for visitors with disabled passengers who need assistance. No others will be allowed in, enforced by MDTA Police.
