Unlikely.  This is a signature initiative that Hogan seriously wants.  It is one of his highest priorities.  All this has done, is what all of the NIMBYs have done since it started is make the project more and more expensive.  The project is far enough along that it will continue.  There is no way to leave all the work that has been accomplished to date unfinished.  There are roads and areas that are torn up and not completed.  The construction is causing issues.  It was accepted when it was temporary towards the opening of the Purple Line.  It is not acceptable to leave it unfinished the way ti is.

I just hope as the costs mount up that the state realizes that Montgomery county residents were at fault here and takes more of the costs out of the state tax revenues that go to Montgomery County.  The local NIMBYs should have to pay for the cost overruns that they've caused.[/quote]
