Bill Summary

Message from His Excellency the Governor returning with recommendation of amendment of certain sections contained in the engrossed Bill making appropriations for the fiscal year 2019 for the maintenance of the departments, boards, commissions, institutions and certain activities of the Commonwealth, for interest, sinking fund and serial bond requirements and for certain permanent improvements (see House, No. 4800).

AI Summary

This bill proposes amending a section of a previous bill that appropriated funds for the maintenance of various state departments, boards, and institutions for the fiscal year 2019. Specifically, the bill originally required the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) to design and implement a pilot program to test the feasibility of offering discounted toll rates during off-peak travel times to alleviate congestion. However, the Governor is recommending an amendment to strike out this section and instead have MassDOT conduct a study to analyze practical ways the Commonwealth could reduce motor vehicle congestion and make appropriate recommendations for further study or pilot programs.
