AI Summary
This bill requires the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, in coordination with the Executive Office of Health and Human Services, to conduct a study on the impacts, benefits, and costs of a low-income fare program for the commuter rail and ferry systems. The study will examine the number of riders who would benefit, the average fare reduction, the impact on fare revenue, eligibility requirements, and methods for advertising the program. The report will also explore the potential for the Department of Transitional Assistance to inform MassHealth recipients about the reduced fare programs. The report must be filed by July 31, 2023.
