#NewEnglandMoment 29 degrees in Providence this morning, but that’s no reason not to be drinking Dunkies’ ice coffee on Acela 2153!
I guess this is what it's come to and I'm glad the T seems to have a solid and transparent plan for what needs to happen. But we shouldn't celebrate this, since it should never have come to this point (which is not the fault of the people in charge now).

Exciting news, including my little $5M New Haven-Providence planning study getting funded. Also a reminder that we’re still waiting for Corridor ID (planning for new/expanded services) and Fed-State National Network (projects outside the NEC) announcements before the end of 2023.

Truly frustrating that her comments on outreach and business engagement go unchallenged in this article, when what she’s saying is just simply not true. thecrimson.com/article/2023/1…
If only this were a parody account…
If only this were a parody account…
Disappointing that in the three day Globe Summit, there’s no discussion about the future of the T, which is possibly the most consequential thing to discuss. And the only thing about transportation is the transition to EVs.
Definitely the quote of the day was from John Blake in Rep. Cartwright’s office: "The irony of this ... is that people ask 'why did service cease…?’ Because of the automobile," he said. "And why are we sitting here talking about restoring it? Because of the automobile.”

Thanks to @PADemPolicy for the opportunity to testify this morning about @Amtrak efforts to expand intercity passenger rail in Pennsylvania in partnership with @PennDOTNnews, gosrpra.com, pnrra.org, and others. #MoreTrainsForMorePeople #NewEraOfRail
Ever wonder what happens to the stuff you return? It’s both more complicated and maybe more depressing than I realized! newyorker.com/magazine/2023/…
Good editorial in this morning’s @BostonGlobe on what I’ll call (to avoid favoring any region of the state) Trans-Mass rail. Restoring Inland Route service would be a great start. bostonglobe.com/2023/08/14/opi…
These *crashes* (not accidents) are tragic and the e-bike industry needs to do better, but making no mention of driver behavior and lack of high quality bike facilities as critical factors is just poor journalism on the part of the @nytimes. nytimes.com/2023/07/29/hea…
I’m finding it hard to believe that the letters the Globe printed are a representative cross section of the letters they received. Also can’t for the life of me understand why anyone listens to anything Barbara Anthony has to say. bostonglobe.com/2023/07/05/opi…
My flight home was cancelled and I made the mistake rebooking on @SouthwestAir. We currently can’t leave the gate because they let people off the plane during a short ground hold, and an hour and a half later they haven’t all returned. This is just pure incompetence!
**Update** Bear last reported in the area of Paul Revere Rd and Park Ave. Please use caution & report any sightings immediately.
And the half truths continue…so many thoughts, so few characters to express them. To say that there was no community consultation is very disrespectful to the dedicated staff who spend their nights and weekends listening to the community! bostonglobe.com/2023/06/09/opi…
I appreciate the point of this editorial, but it’s also some lazy writing from the editorial board. These projects involve difficult discussions and decisions, but this just perpetuates the false narrative that biking is some sort of fringe activity. bostonglobe.com/2023/06/06/opi…
The customs hall at JFK is clearly where hope goes to die!
So many people up and down the route were excited for today’s return of the @Amtrak #Adirondack to northern New York and Montreal!!
