Baltimore roads being repaired for Grand Prix



In approximately one year from now, Grand Prix auto racing will be coming to Baltimore, Maryland. In order for this to happen roads have to be repaired to secure our streets, and their safety. Repairs will cost over 5 million. This should be great for Baltimore's economy! I wish they were fixing these roads before this, but it makes sense that money is projected to come in as a result of this venture.


Here are the projected numbers:

The Grand Prix is expected to attract more than 100,000 visitors to Baltimore, inject $70 million into the local economy, generate $7 million in tax dollars and create nearly 2,000 jobs.- Via WJZ
