• Your Voice, Your Stories: Safer streets, road repairs and a food truck's new home (wmar2news.com) — New speed humps on Kenwood Avenue in Catonsville are finally slowing traffic after nine crashes in two years, giving one homeowner hope her yard won't be hit again. The story also checks on erosion-related road work in Harford County and a popular food truck's new restaurant in Aberdeen, but the most immediate impact for Catonsville residents is the traffic calming on their neighborhood street.
