Meet the Community Liaisons!

Staying connected to the community is a critical element in realizing the success of the Red Line project. In keeping with this vision, the newest members of the project team will work closely with neighborhoods in the project area and serve as liaisons between the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) and communities in the Red Line corridor. Integrating the Community Liaisons into the Red Line project is one of the goals outlined in the Baltimore City Red Line Community Compact. The Compact is an agreement among the communities in the Red Line corridor, Baltimore City, the MTA, and other stakeholders to make the Red Line a catalyst for economic and environmental benefits in the project's neighborhoods. The liaisons come to the project with a vast amount of community outreach experience.

"We welcome the Community Liaisons to the Red Line project team – they will play a key role in the MTA's efforts to engage the community and enhance awareness of the Red Line project," said Tamika Gauvin, Red Line Community Outreach Coordinator. The MTA Community Liaisons will also work with Station Area Advisory Committees (SAACs) throughout the station design process.
