On Tuesday afternoon, the St. Mary’s County commissioners and representatives from the department of public works and transportation hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the newest extension of FDR Boulevard, which officially opened to drivers the following day. “Today is an opportunity to recognize just how far we’ve come,” Commissioner President Randy Guy (R) said. “The vision for FDR Boulevard has always been about more than building another road.
