  • 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.

Focus40 identifies ‘Priority Places’ for new or improved service based on where investments have the greatest likelihood to deliver ridership and other real benefits to the region. • Density of activity/residents • Low-income and/or

  • MEPA Certificate for the I-90 Allston Interchange Project Environmental Notification Form ABC Summary January 12, 2015, Revised February 25, 2015
    MEPA Certificate for the I-90 Allston Interchange Project Environmental Notification Form ABC Summary January 12, 2015, revised February 25, 2015 On October 31, 2014, MassDOT filed a 172-page Environmental Notification Form (ENF) with the Environmental Policy Act (MEPA) Office for the I-90 Allston Interchange Project (Project). The MEPA Office is under the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EOEA), and the ENF is the first of what for large projects is often a three-stage environmental review process. The EOEA completed its review of that ENF and issued a (so-called) Secretary’s MEPA Certificate for the Project on December 24, 2014. The Secretary’s Certificate at 39 pages contains a wide range of findings and determinations, suggestions and requirements for MassDOT to consider as it takes the Project forward in the environmental review and final design process. A Better City has reviewed the Secretary’s Certificate and has prepared the attached Table of Contents and Summary. The Secretary determined that the project requires preparation of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) because it exceeds the thresholds that trigger this requirement. The Certificate provides a project description, summarizes environmental impacts, describes jurisdiction and permitting requirements, reviews the ENF, outlines the scope required for the EIR, and lists the authors of comments received by the MEPA Office. The most critical part of the Certificate for future actions by MassDOT, the project proponent, is the scope for the EIR. Our summary of the scope follows the outline of the Certificate and is keyed to references in the Certificate that include the exact language of the Secretary’s letter.

  • Boston New England : Massachusetts : Greater Boston : Boston
    Boston New England : Massachusetts : Greater Boston : Boston Boston's Back Bay along the Charles River. Boston is the largest city in New England, the capital of the state of Massachusetts, and one of the most historic, wealthy and influential cities in the United States of America. Its plethora of museums, historical sights, and wealth of live performances, all explain why the city gets 16.3 million visitors a year, making it one of the ten most popular tourist locations in the country. Although not technically in Boston, the neighboring cities of Cambridge and Brookline are functionally integrated with Boston by mass transit and effectively a part of the city. Cambridge, just across the Charles River, is home to Harvard, MIT, local galleries, restaurants, and bars and is an essential addition to any visit to Boston. Brookline is nearly surrounded by Boston and has its own array of restaurants and shopping. [edit]Districts Neighborhood nicknames are in (parentheses). The skyline of Boston's Financial District Allston and Brighton (Allston-Brighton) Located west of Boston proper, these districts (especially Brighton) are primarily residential, and are home to many students and young professionals. Brighton is abutted Boston College, which is the terminus of the Green Line's B Branch. The border between the two is a fuzzy subject of debate, so they are often considered as one neighborhood by outsiders. Back Bay This upscale area of Boston has fine shops, fine dining, as well as sites such as the Prudential Center, Copley Square, and Hynes Convention Center. Beacon Hill Once the neighborhood of the Boston Brahmins.

Like the new service launched on the D branch less than a week ago, the three-car trains will make two roundtrips during the morning and late afternoon commuting periods. The service was discontinued five years ago on the B branch, which runs above ground from Boston College to Blandford Street. Its recent comeback on two Green Line branches was sparked by residents who asked the T to consider adding more cars during peak hours.

  • Plan to Consolidate Comm Ave. T Stops Gets Approval March 25, 2020 9:12 Pm by Vanessa Kjeldsen
    Plan to consolidate Comm Ave. T stops gets approval March 25, 2020 9:12 pm by Vanessa Kjeldsen The sound of the T honking at a student crossing Commonwealth Avenue may become more rare by 2021. The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s Fiscal Management and Control Board granted a $17.8 million contract Monday to consolidate four Green Line B Branch stops along Commonwealth Avenue into two. A person walks past a Green Line train departing Saint Paul Street station. The MBTA announced plans Monday to consolidate four Green Line B Branch stops along Commonwealth Avenue. HANNAH YOSHINAGA/ DFP FILE The St. Paul Street and Boston University West stations, as well as the Babcock Street and Pleasant Street stations, will be replaced with two new stations to speed up service, according to an MBTA press release. The consolidation is a major part of the Green Line Transformation project. Each of the completed stations would also offer new benches, shelters and safety features. At both stations, the project would implement updated fare collection machines, longer platforms and low-level vehicle compatibility for boarding and exiting. Construction for the new platforms will begin in 2020, with a projected completion date of 2021, according to the MBTA. MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak said in a press release the consolidation will be advantageous to commuters in various ways, including more consistent timing, faster rides and increased accessibility. “While customers will be able to experience these benefits by the fall of 2021,” Poftak said, “these improvements also set the stage for the transformation of the Green Line as the new stations’ larger platforms will accommodate the new longer cars in procurement for the Green Line.” Stacy Thompson, director of transit advocacy group LiveableStreets Alliance, said she has been an advocate of this change for years.

Transit service in Allston includes Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) bus routes 47, 57/57A, 64, 66, 70/70A, 86, 501, 503, and CT2; the Boston Landing commuter rail station on the MBTA’s Worcester Line; 11 stops on the Boston College (B) branch of the MBTA Green Line; and several private shuttles. This study analyzed ridership data, passenger comfort and service reliability metrics as defined by the MBTA’s Service Delivery Policy, bus travel speeds and locations of delay, the conditions of rail and bus stops and stations, and recent passenger survey data for MBTA transit services.
