π° News we're reading
β’ Maryland to modernize US 13 truck weigh station in Wicomico County (wrde.com) β Drivers in Delmar should expect construction around the US 13 Truck Weigh and Inspection Station as Maryland begins a $5.2 million modernization project expected to finish by next summer. The work will upgrade the 1955-era facility with new scales, technology, lighting, cameras, and expanded inspection parking, all within the existing footprint, so truckers and commuters may see changing traffic patterns and reduced speed limits.
