Post of the year, folks.

I would put it on Dartmouth Street, which would pretty much provide a direct BRT/LRT linkage between Back Bay and Kendal area. The Dartmouth ROW is extra wide so no eminent domain would be needed in Back Bay save one or two buildings on Beacon St. It would effectively direct the memorial drive...

Absent a monolithic bypass, I think the best you can do for the shoreline is going to be incremental bypasses of the most problematic areas. These smaller projects could be done independently so one section doesn't hang up the rest of them. Although they wouldn't result in full blown HSR, it...

At one point(1968), there was also a plan for an intermediate beltway between 128 and 495. http://www.bostonroads.com/history/1968-map_outside-128/

I prefer option 3, just because it has the most green. That said, I wonder why none of the options save one have more than a pinstripe of green on the front end.

I believe a blue line extension was officially considered as an alternative in the early stages of planing for the project that ultimately became the GLX.

Also quite disingenuous to claim that the towns make a paltry revenue from rail related business, while ignoring how much the towns save from not having to truck out the trash.

Whenever something under Dartmouth gets proposed, it's always brought up how hard underpinning Copley and surroundings is going to be.

Per the Rep-Am, the order includes an option for 300 additional cars, so hopefully they wont end up being unicorns.

The reason I heard is that there's still alot of utilities that run under that street.

The Acela II's can't come fast enough. I had the opportunity to ride the Acela on my way to a conference in Virginia this past weekend. The ride quality was a bit bumpier than I expected, although I don't know how much of that was due to the track conditions.

By bringing the Quebecois straight from Montreal?

I think a stop in that vicinity might be better a little farther east towards Webster Square and the Price Chopper which has a lot more redevelopment potential, but half the catchment area is still going to be cemetery. I prefer a +1 extension that incorporates a new layover, either a stop in...

^Slicing the Kenmordian knot, as it were.

For all we know we'll get a pleasant surprise like the Congress st routing for the NSRL being deemed feasible as an alternative for something else in the future.

I think its more complex than that. The angle of attack of the wings changes depending on how high the pantograph is extended, providing the feedback to keep the pantograph at a steady level. If the pantograph became extended too far, the wings will push down.

So many that CT just passed a law banning out of state dispensaries from advertising in CT on highway billboards.

Took a tour of the Whitcomb house for my architecture class at WPI. Absolutely gorgeous, inside and out.

Thank goodness they only changed the logo and didn't repaint the entire car.
