MBTA Board of Directors hold first meeting after a still-ongoing federal investigation hits the fan

Just when one thought that things could not become much worse with the MBTA’s operations, they of course become worse.

Way worse.

That and but a mere few hours after the MBTA Board of Directors held its first meeting since the Federal Transporation Authority began investigating chronic safety problems at the MBTA.

In a still breaking badly bad news© story, the evening commute today was suddenly disrupted on the Green and Orange lines.

While not specifically acknowledged, it would appear that damage caused to these tunnels from an uncontrolled collapse of the garage in March while it was undergoing demolishment was worse than previously thought.

Coming soon?

Shuttle buses were brought to cover Green Line service all the way to the Back Back but Orange Line service was not so covered. Instead, impacted straphangers will have to travel along the bus replacement service provided for Green Line service.
