- Steltek 7y agoMassDOT recently published their capital budget with a little more fanfare than usual, to soothe Red Line passengers hurting from the recent derailment perhaps. It included $3 billion in major repaving efforts but that seems to have gone without challenge. However the Green Line Extension is barely alive politically on their $2.4B capital budget. Likewise, a nearby overpass on Rt 128 was repaired for $30M. Highways eat money but when Massachusetts looks to obvious transit improvements, suddenly cost is a major concern.
