More specifically, it examines the controversial performances of two separate authorities that deal with transportation problems. One involves a fail- ure to detect terrorists breaching security at Logan Airport; the other entails a bitter dispute that arose over the delay in raising tolls on the turnpike to pay for the Big Dig project. With both in mind, this study describes the countervailing pressures that converge on the executive branch of state government as it con- fronts the prospect of holding these two authorities accountable.
