Public Meeting | Red Line Hi-Rail Access Tunnel Project (Virtual)
Meeting Info
Attendees: Open to everyone
Event Description
Join the MBTA for a public meeting about the Red Line Hi-Rail Access Tunnel Project.
We're building a new access tunnel for hi-rail vehicles that will enable shorter and less frequent Red Line shutdowns, faster commutes, and bring the MBTA closer to a state of good repair.
A hi-rail vehicle is a work truck equipped with a hydraulic set of train wheels in addition to rubber tires, allowing it to operate on railways and surface streets. Right now, the only access tunnel for these vehicles is near Charles/MGH station.
At this meeting, we'll provide an update on the project's progress, outline its benefits, and answer questions.
