UPDATE on the Allston Multimodal Project. At this time MassDOT and the project development team have narrowed the design options of the project and outlined the potential impacts of the design options. They have released three options, you can find detailed information about them at this link:
At this time, we are years away from this project breaking ground, but I will continue to monitor the development of a final option and advocate at the appropriate time for the interests of those who commute into Boston from this area. I am interested in your reaction to the three proposals and encourage you to share your thoughts with me. Ultimately, there will be a need to ensure that commuting capacity is maintained during the long period of construction, but until the final plan is approved, exactly what will be needed to maintain capacity cannot be known. I have certainly communicated to DOT and Secretary Pollack my concerns regarding the impact on commuters from the Wellesley, Weston, Wayland area and the need to address that.
