As part of the Capital Transformation Program, the Green Line Transformation (GLT) is upgrading service on the T’s most popular light rail line.

The GLT program will improve reliability and quality of service for riders and communities served by the Green Line. Achieving this requires major upgrades to tracks, signals, stations, facilities and vehicles.

Building a Better T

As part of our $9.6 billion, 5-year capital investment plan, we're renovating stations, modernizing fare collection systems, upgrading services for our buses, subways, and ferries, and improving the accessibility of the entire system.
