  • CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT
    CHAPTER 2 Progress Since the Last PMT The 2003 PMT outlined the actions needed to bring the MBTA transit system into a state of good repair (SGR). It evaluated and prioritized a number of specific enhancement and expansion projects proposed to improve the system and better serve the regional mobility needs of Commonwealth residents. In the inter- vening years, the MBTA has funded and implemented many of the 2003 PMT priorities. The transit improvements highlighted in this chapter have been accomplished in spite of the unsus- tainable condition of the Authority’s present financial structure. A 2009 report issued by the MBTA Advisory Board1 effectively summarized the Authority’s financial dilemma: For the past several years the MBTA has only balanced its budgets by restructuring debt liquidat- ing cash reserves, selling land, and other one-time actions. Today, with credit markets frozen, cash reserves depleted and the real estate market at a stand still, the MBTA has used up these options. This recession has laid bare the fact that the MBTA is mired in a structural, on-going deficit that threatens its viability. In 2000 the MBTA was re-born with the passage of the Forward Funding legislation.This legislation dedicated 20% of all sales taxes collected state-wide to the MBTA. It also transferred over $3.3 billion in Commonwealth debt from the State’s books to the T’s books. In essence, the MBTA was born broke. Throughout the 1990’s the Massachusetts sales tax grew at an average of 6.5% per year. This decade the sales tax has barely averaged 1% annual growth.

  • Annual Report of the Performance and Asset Management Advisory Council Presented By
    Annual Report of the Performance and Asset Management Advisory Council presented by Performance and Asset Management Advisory Council Patricia Leavenworth, P.E., Chair November 2017 Annual Report of the Performance and Asset Management Advisory Council Executive Summary MassDOT’s progress in implementing asset management is keeping Massachusetts apace with Federal requirements. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) have implemented final transportation asset management (TAM) rules in 2017 that impact how MassDOT measures and communicates the condition of its assets. Transportation Asset Management Plans FHWA and FTA rules require the Highway Division, the MBTA, the Rail and Transit Division, and each RTA to complete a transportation asset management plan (TAMP for Highway, TAM Plan for transit). The status on these plans is as follows: Highway | Will be submitted to FHWA in April, 2018. MBTA | Will be submitted to FTA by October, 2018. Rail | A consultant has been retained for delivery of an asset management plan for rail by February, 2018. This plan is not required by any Federal rule, but MassDOT is pursuing it to improve asset management at the agency. Transit | MassDOT is making progress toward submitting the TAM Plan for MassDOT’s in-house transit assets and those of its Federal Aid sub-recipients to FTA by October, 2018. RTAs | Each RTA is at a different stage in the development of their asset management plans, due to the FTA by October, 2018. MassDOT is ready to assist if asked. Performance and Condition Key performance and asset management findings of this report are summarized below by asset type and division.

    TAKING THE TRAIN? Explaining MBTA Commuter Rail Ridership INTRODUCTION RIDERSHIP BY STATION RESULTS The MBTA Commuter Rail provides service from suburbs in the Boston Metro Area to Boston area stations, with terminal Commuter Rail Variables stations at North Station and South Station. While using commuter rail may be faster, particularly at rush hour, than using a Distance to Boston, distance to rapid transit, price of commuter rail, commuter rail time, transit time, and drive time are all personal vehicle or other transit alternatives, people still choose not to use the Commuter Rail, as can be demonstrated by the highly correlated. This makes sense as they all essentially measure distance to Boston in dollars, minutes and miles. high volume of people driving at rush hour. For the commuter rail variables analysis, trains per weekday (standardized beta=.536, p=.000), drive time at 8AM This study seeks to understand the personal vehicle and public transit alternatives to the MBTA Commuter Rail at each stop (standardized beta=.385, p=.000), peak on time performance (standardized beta=-.206, p=.009) and the terminal station to understand what options people have when deciding to use the Commuter Rail over another mode and what characteristics (p=.001) were found to be significant. Interestingly, all variables calculated for the area a half mile from commuter rail sta- tions (population, jobs and median income) were not significant. of the alternatives may inspire people to choose them over Commuter Rail. Understanding what transit and driving alterna- tives are like at each Commuter Rail stop may offer insight into why people are choosing or not choosing Commuter Rail for Transit Variables their trips to Boston, and how to encourage ridership.
