No...this wouldn't do anything for Montgomery County, which is mostly northwest of DC and not at all on the way to/from Baltimore. Driving to DC from Baltimore you pass through Prince George's County. Unless maybe they expect people are going to move from Montgomery County to Baltimore? That seems unlikely. The type of person who wants to live in Montgomery County does not want to live in Baltimore.

I live in Montgomery County and I would live in/around Baltimore. I'm completely priced out of the non-stabby areas of DC if I want to send my kids to public school. I probably wouldn't send my kids to Baltimore public schools either, but at least I could afford the private ones there.
