Fair enough, I just meant something more like "We will be closing the Orange Line 8/19 - 9/19, and the Green Line between Union Square and Government Center on similar dates that will follow shortly"I disagree. I'm pretty sure they literally locked the decision sometime yesterday or even this morning. It would have meant not announcing the Orange Line shutdown until today. With so little time, every day counts for everyone to prepare - both passengers and various authorities like the Mayor of Boston to scrape together every mitigation. Having the past week instead only next week and the week after is likely helpful.
