Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker and MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak outlined a series of service alternatives Wednesday.
Are you a regular rider of the MBTA's Orange Line? If so, here's a look at what your commute will look like duringBaker outlined a series of steps the MBTA is taking to accelerate major track and maintenance work during a 30-day shutdown beginning Aug. 19. It's the longest service diversion ever overseen by the T for an entire line, he said. Without the shutdown, the planned work would have taken five full years of weekend and evening diversions.
"We know that any diversion, particularly one like this, will be frustrating to riders, and we appreciate their patience as the T implements this short term work that can result in long term benefits on a much shorter timeframe and get to the place we all need to get to much more quickly," Baker said.
"We know that we can't wait," MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak added."So part of this shutdown is about not waiting. It is about making the necessary improvements and making them now."
