1 Interview with Fred Salvucci, Former Massachusetts Secretary Of
Interview with Fred Salvucci, former Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation, for Program Four: “The Big Dig” Note: This transcript is from a videotaped interview for “The Big Dig” segment of “Great Projects.” It has been edited lightly for readability. Interviewer (INT): What are the first three words that jump into your mind when you hear the word “Boston”? Fred Salvucci (FS): Great city. I like it. INT: What do you like about it? FS: Well, it's got all of these exciting assets within walking distance of each other. It's absolutely unique in the United States. We’ve got the capitol of the state, the finance center, essentially, of New England. We've got the North Station with the Bruins and the Celtics. You’ve got Fenway Park. You've got Harvard. You've got MIT. You've got Boston University. You've got the Mass General Hospital and all of these assets; you could walk from one to the other. I mean we have all of this intensity in a very concentrated area. Even other cities that that people compare to Boston sometimes don't, like San Francisco, which is a great city, [but] they don't have quite this concentration and residential neighborhoods the North End, the Back Bay, Beacon Hill, the South End really within walking distance. And I love where I live, out in Brighton -- it's accessible. Everything is inter-accessible. And you can get around. It's a nice place to walk, which is important. INT: How long have you been living in Boston? FS: Well, I was born in Boston, and the section of Boston I live in is in Brighton.

The Bridge: the Belmont Street Bridge Carries Belmont Street (Route 9
PRUDENTIAL TUNNEL CEILING REMOVAL PROJECT What to Expect: The Massachusetts Convention the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA) and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) will be conducting four significant weekend lane restrictions on the Massachusetts Turnpike (Interstate 90) to support the removal of the Prudential Tunnel ceiling, an asset owned and maintained by the MCCA. The restrictions will reduce the number of travel lanes in each direction on the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90) through the Pru Tunnel on the following weekends beginning at 9 PM Friday through 5 AM Monday: March 21-23: I-90 Westbound March 28-30: I-90 Westbound April 4-6: I-90 Eastbound April 25-27: I-90 Eastbound Beginning at 9 PM on Friday night, lane restrictions will be implemented on both eastbound and westbound I-90 in Boston. By approximately 3 AM on Saturday, traffic in both directions will be reduced to a single travel lane until 5 AM on Monday. Due to the reduced number of travel lanes for both directions of I-90, most of the on- and off-ramps between the Alston/Brighton Tolls and I-93 in Boston will be closed for the duration of the weekend. Motorists should expect significant delays and congestion as a result of this necessary work on the ceiling of the Prudential Tunnel. What to Do: For those traveling locally in Boston, increased traffic will likely be present on surface streets in the Back Bay. Detours to access the Turnpike (I-90) westbound will be in place. For those traveling to Boston from the west, consider using an alternate route to downtown such as Storrow Drive from the Allston/Brighton Toll Interchange on I-90 or Interstate 95 (Route 128) to Interstate 93.

All Electronic Tolling (AET): Frequently Asked Questions
Charles D. Baker, Governor Karyn E. Polito, Lieutenant. Governor Stephanie Pollack, MassDOT Secretary & CEO 8/22/2016 All Electronic Tolling (AET): Frequently Asked Questions In 2012, MassDOT made the decision to transition to an All Electronic Tolling (AET) system for the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90) as well as all of the Boston tunnels and the Tobin Memorial Bridge. MassDOT is currently testing the AET system and plans to activate it by the end of October. AET: Background Why is AET being implemented? The primary purpose of AET is to increase safety and convenience for the traveling public by eliminating the sometimes dramatic speed reductions and congestion that occur at toll plaza, which studies have shown to be a significant source of crashes. AET will improve safety since crashes occur more frequently both in the approaches to toll booths and as vehicles exit the toll booths and move into travel lanes. The crash rate for the Weston toll plaza, for example, is about 60 percent higher than it is on the adjacent mainline roadway. AET will also help improve air quality by reducing emissions from vehicles idling in toll lanes or accelerating and decelerating in manual collection toll lanes as well as in existing E-ZPass lanes, where drivers must now reduce their speed to 15 miles an hour. AET will save the motoring public more than 800 hours of time every day, or 280,000 hours a year. The system will also save drivers up to 875,000 gallons of gasoline a year. How does AET work? AET gantries have been installed and equipped with sensors that will electronically register toll charges as vehicles pass under them.

Callahan Tunnel Capacity Management
Transportation Research Record 1005 1 Callahan Tunnel Capacity Management HERBERT S. LEVINSON, MARVIN GOLENBERG, and JANE HOWARD ABSTRACT The Callahan Tunnel capacity management actions that were implemented beginning May 1983 in conjunction with one-way inbound toll collection are described. Traffic operations and capacities for both "before• and "after" conditions are analyzed. The analyses of existing Callahan peak-hour traffic volumes, flows through the parallel Sumner Tunnel, and volumes in the four New York City tun nels provided a basis for estimating tunnel and tunnel-system capacity. The analyses suggested a tunnel capacity of 1,600 to 1,650 vehicles per lane per hour compared with average peak-hour system volumes of 1,450 vehicles per lane. Channelization of the tunnel approach, elimination of outbound toll collection, and realignment of the tunnel exit lanes were estimated to increase system throughput by about 350 to 400 vehicles per hour--up to 200 vehicles per lane. "After• studies conducted during June 1983 indicated that flow rates of more than 1,600 vehicles per lane were achieved. The plan is significant in another respect--speed of implementation. Improvement concepts were formulated during March and April 1983, and their implementation began during May of that year. The opening of the Sumner Tunnel in 1934 as a two Tunnel) in coordination with similar one-way inbound lane, two-way facility created the first significant toll operations on the Tobin Bridge (Mystic River and direct automobile link between East Boston and Bridge) • Underlying objectives were to (a) increase North Shore communities and the city of Boston and tunnel throughput, (bl reduce the amount and dura conununities lying to the south of the Charles River tion of queueing at the tunnel approach, and (c) and Boston Harbor.

Massdot Moves Forward on All Electronic Tolling
For Immediate Release August 22, 2016 For Information Contact MassDOT Press Office: 857-368-8500 MassDOT Moves Forward on All Electronic Tolling Proposes Revenue Neutral Tolling Rates and Funds Contracts for Toll Plaza Removal in 2017 Discount for E-ZPassMA users extended statewide; end-to-end E-ZPassMA tolling rates on I- 90 reduced August 22, 2016, Boston - The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) Board acted today to move ahead with plans to completely demolish Interstate 90 toll plazas by the end of 2017 as a milestone in the state’s progress toward All Electronic Tolling (AET) along Interstate 90 (the Massachusetts Turnpike), the Tobin Bridge, and Boston tunnels. At today’s Board meeting, MassDOT announced that AET will “go live” on October 28. The Board approved toll demolition contracts, reviewed data security and retention proposals and instructed MassDOT to proceed with public hearings on proposed toll rates designed to be revenue neutral and minimize changes in toll charges for current commuters. “The AET system will improve driver convenience and safety and reduce greenhouse gas- causing vehicle emissions,” said MassDOT Highway Administrator Thomas J. Tinlin. “When toll booths have been removed, AET will allow drivers to maintain regular highway speed as they pass under AET gantries, eliminating the need for drivers to sharply reduce speed and idle in toll booth lines.” The Board-approved contracts provide that tolls booths will begin to be demolished as soon as AET goes live and all work to remove toll plazas and reconstruct roadways is to be completed by the end of 2017. Toll plaza removal and reconstruction, excluding the Sumner Tunnel, will cost about $133 million.
