Re: Fall River/New Bedford Commuter Rail
Very good to see. We should have been doing this all along. Lots and lots of buses are the best way to prove the kind of demand we can expect to see--cheaper than re-activating rail, cheaper than future rail ops losses, and more honest than consultants. I hope the service does well and is expanded further.
So is this "route priming" on the south coast? New bus service Dartmouth to Boston in addition to existing DATTCO.
Also, interestingly, Service from Fairhaven to Providence and continuing to Worcester via Route 146. Testing Worcester/Providence demand?
