As crews worked to shut off the water, the southbound, downhill lanes were blocked, but the the northbound lanes were able to get through, with some rubbernecking slowdowns.

Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich on Monday released a $6.7 billion budget plan for the next fiscal year, recommending no tax-rate increases, a reorganization of the county’s police department, and targeted funding to support recovery from the pandemic.
Of the $6.7 billion, roughly $6 billion would go to the operating budget and the remainder would to the Capital Improvements Program, debt service and reserves. The recommended $6 billion budget is an increase from the $5.8 billion budget the County Council approved in late May.
