UNPAUSE BOSTON'S TRANSIT FUTURE
In Boston, there are 16 transportation projects that—once complete—will create safer streets and more reliable and affordable ways to get around.
Following years of community engagement and design work, many of these projects have received federal funding commitments totaling hundreds of millions of dollars—funding we risk losing if project delays continue.
Transit is Essential and the Boston Task Force call on the Administration to unpause these projects and provide a transparent explanation for this lack of progress.
