Bill Summary
For legislation relative to the coordination of transit infrastructure projects. Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill requires the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA) to coordinate the construction of the Red Line and Blue Line connector with the city of Boston and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). The goal is to minimize construction disruption by completing the transit projects before the substantial completion of the planned MGH campus development on Cambridge Street. The MBTA must execute a memorandum of understanding with the city and MGH, which includes a plan to have the Red and Blue Line projects finished before the MGH project, in order to maximize transit access to the hospital complex and support prioritization of ambulances and overall access for residents and businesses.
