Green Line Extension to Medford & Union Sq

Ugh, you're right. I wasn't looking very carefully at the map, so I guess I'll just go back to pining for an access ramp on both sides of Washington Street.

yeah, I'd love if money was spent on propper access from East Somerville but instead money has been spent on access to the rear of the inner belt that has zero residents. I mean there are plans to build in the area and the old GLX staging area along the inner belt road has got to be worth more now but the priorities seem out of whack

The old GLX staging area is going to become expanded storage tracks for the VMF and a MoW facility.

MoW - Maintenance of Way?

Was this always in the plan? Why do they need more space already?
I get buying the land and holding it though.

VMF = Vehicle Maintenance Facility (Existing)
MOW = Maintenance of Way

The real estate transaction was announced at a Board Meeting in the past year or so, with a very conceptual layout. The expansion is to accommodate the new GL Type 10 cars, and provide MOW needed space.
