Yes, there is a planning meeting with the T-Rider's Union at 6 pm on Tuesday at 165 Broadway in Somerville (Somerville Youth Center) to plan opposition to these cuts. I and some other members of Street and Outreach will be there. There also is a group called Students Against T Cuts that is organizing around this issue. This has the potential to be a really big issue, as it effects literally most of the population of Boston, and much of the surrounding areas as well.

Oh forgot to mention, that under one of the plans more than 100 bus lines will be cut. Under the other fares will increase more, mostly for Students, Elderly and the disabled. The Ride, which services people that have extreme mobility issues, will increase by 500% under this plan.

Hey y'all,
Yesterday at the outreach meeting we had a discussion regarding the proposed service cuts and fare increases for the MBTA. There was some disagreement regarding what the service cuts might look like, especially regarding the E-line. I looked up some info here and found that under both proposals the E-line and the Mattapan Trolley would not run during weekends. Also under both proposals, commuter rails would not run after 10 pm or on the weekends, and all ferry lines would be cut.


Just thought y'all might like to know.
IS,BJ
