Final lawsuit against Purple Line project questions choice of light rail over buses

Maryland’s Purple Line project.
Purple Line
The third and final lawsuit against the Purple Line project in Maryland could just result in a second look.
Opponents of the light-rail project appeared in a federal appeals court on March 11 and argued that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issued permits that allowed construction workers to discharge dredge and fill into streams and wetlands in Montgomery and Prince George’s counties. The plaintiffs said this was a violation of the Clean Water Act and the Corps needed to consider their idea, which was to upgrade bus service that would be more environmentally friendly.
