Maybe the Congress St bus lanes that have been proposed could be used to have 92 and 93 continue onto 7?
Is there a reason why the Fenway stop on the D-Line doesn't have fare gates? Isn't the only access point to that station the parking lot of the Landmark Center (and the stairs down to that parking lot from Park Drive)?
That's strange. I distinctly remember there being one when going to Red Sox games although admittingly that was a couple years ago.

Does anyone know why the Orange line doesn't run express trains between Wellington and NS? Can the fleet just not support it? Is this something that could ever be back on the table with the new sets?
I think there are a few thousand passengers every day who'd disagree but that's fair.
Considering the tracks would go from 3 to 2 at Community College I feel like the skip stop wouldn't really have that great an impact. What needs to happen is more cars and updated, CBTC signals so more trains can run per hour. What is the tph of the OL now? Like a train every 5 min? That's ridiculous. If you had trains every 2 min at peak you'd be fine.
Do we have a good idea of which highway overpasses would be best suited (or rather, in the most need) for diverging diamond interchanges?
Well considering that they're only really suited for replacing diamond interchanges, and they aren't a whole lot of diamond interchanges in the Boston area, there's not too many candidates. SE Expressway and Columbia is probably the best candidate. There's also a couple diamond interchanges along rt 9 in Newton and along rt 2 in Arlington.
There are ton of rotary intersections where a diverging diamond would fit well. I'm not sure that a diverging diamond is better then a rotary though.Seems to me like there’s plenty of diamond interchanges crossing 128 and further out. Granted, few are in Boston proper.
