Red line delays. Green B and C line troubles. Lack of timely D trains and now I hear something is going on with the Orange line.
How many of you couldn’t get on one of the overpacked trains tonight?
Why the F hasn’t the MBTA made improvements?
Thought I might be exaggerating in my mind so I made an effort to track my observations. 13 out of 15 days, I have observed one of the following at Harvard and Williams Streets intersection:
- cars making a left from Harvard onto Williams when the light is RED (two of the times, there was at least one pedestrian in the cross walk - the pedestrian had the green light, the car went through the red light)
- electric scooters going the wrong direction. Williams is a one way street and the bikes were driving down it the wrong way (driving down Williams into Harvard)
- cars turning right in red when pedestrians were in crosswalk
- cars stopping in the middle of Williams (not parking, not pulling over), and the driver getting out and going into Bakey (blocking the road so other cars have to wait for them to be done with Bakey)
I don’t understand why I never see a cop there at that intersection.
And, tonight was fun when a person rode their electric scooter on the sidewalk from Coolidge Corner many blocks, heading towards Commonwealth Ave yelling “Fuck you!”
at everyone walking on the sidewalk.
I’m just so curious why we rarely see police around? BTW, I respect the police and have many family members (5+) that are or were cops. Just curious where the ones in Brookline are?
Please do better. Delays on every line. And, stop it with your fucking 4 car trains at rush hour.
Can’t seem to find it in the news.
Last year a Boston hospital had layoffs. It was a big deal, in the news and all. It wasn’t listed in the WARN Act website. I’m just curious as to why. Wondering if it’s because the hospital system is so large that it didn’t count as a massive layoff even though so many people lost their jobs.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
