511 Free Traveler Service Now Available in Maryland

Will a car crash double the time it takes to get home tonight?  Will an  emergency road repair steal away beach time next weekend?  If you have traffic questions, get answers with Maryland 511. As the Grand Prix rolls into Maryland early next month, the State Highway Administration (SHA) urges drivers to “Get ready, Set, KNOW.”  Know Before You Go is the theme of the new Maryland 511 traveler information system now available throughout the State.  It provides key travel information to help guide Marylanders before heading out to major events, cross-state travel and daily commutes.  Calling 511 from any mobile or land line or logging onto www.MD511.org provides free one-stop shopping for travel information on State maintained roadways, including travel times, incident or work zone lane closures, weather reports and connections to transit, airport and tourism information. Personalize your traffic information and travel times with My Maryland 511, a feature of the www.MD511.org web site, where you can create a profile and set up designated “trips,” (i.e. from home to work or from home to beach).   Thereafter every time you log in, you’re instantly offered customized traffic information as well as instant access to up to six pre-selected live traffic camera views.  In your profile choose to include commonly used phone numbers, so that when you call 511, you are recognized and offered tailored information bypassing the general menu prompts. “Take advantage of 511 and its benefits, but please do so safely,” said Acting SHA Administrator Darrell Mobley.   “It’s a good time to remind Marylander drivers about the laws restricting hand-held phone use and texting while driving.  Access 511 before heading out or after pulling over to a safe location.” Specific suggestions and concerns are welcome; just tell us what is important to you. You can record comments using the 511 phone system by pressing “77” or the “Contact Us” link on the website to let us know about your experience with the service.  SHA will continue to refine the voice recognition and programming during the initial phase.  In addition to dialing “511” in Maryland, you can reach Maryland 511 by calling the toll-free number: 1-855-GOMD511 or 1-855-466-3511 . The three-digit “511” number was designated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as the national telephone number for traveler information.  “511” is used by more than 40 state or municipal transportation departments and transit agencies in the nation.  SHA awarded the $4.7 million contract to Telvent in Rockville, Md. to design, build, implement, operate, host and maintain Maryland’s state-wide 511 program for five years.

Timber Block Holding Free Seminars in Pennsylvania and Maryland ...

Hope everyone is having a great summer! I want to share with you details about our upcoming free seminars. This time, we're heading to Maryland and Pennsylvania. We found during our last series of seminars, people were very grateful because not only did they get their questions answered about Timber Block, but also they ended up getting clarity on the entire home buidling process. We want to make sure consumers begin their home building project with eyes wide open, and armed with as much information as possible! We will also talk to participants about the benefits of system building, energy efficiency and Timber Block's patented product and process. The way we build homes is truly revolutionary. As it is with really anything and everything, technology changes. Take a look at TVs today....remember in the 1950s when TVs were black and white? Now with HD flat screen TVs, we literally see the TV in a whole different light. The same goes for building homes. While it's possible to build homes the same way as they were built years ago (just like it's possible to watch a black and white, fuzzy television - but who wants to do that?) technology changes, and you realize you don't have to build that way anymore. Now you can get the beautiful home you've always wanted, but also you get dependability, quality, low maintenance, and so much more - oh, and it's a home that you watched be built in less than a day! Stop by our seminar and find out why Timber Block is on the leading edge of the home building revolution and as many would say "The Future of Home Building"

The seminars will be held July 19 in Allentown, PA, July 20 in Harrisburg, PA and July 21 in Rockville, MD. Send me an email, or comment below or call me at 866-929-5647 for more information or to RSVP - see you there!
