Spreading further down Rte. 95 is desirable from my perspective as it connects Providence, RI with Boston and 128.
The mass transit system is setup as a wagon wheel with everything south of Boston going into Back Bay and South Stations. (I believe every line north goes into North Station but I've never gone from that direction.) Frankly I can't see a better approach for mass transit. The problem I think is that the high tech jobs tend to be up in Cambridge or parts of Boston that require transfers from the major commuter line stations.
Rte. 128 is an old highway that wasn't intended for the traffic on it and I'm not sure if property lines and such prevent further expansion of it. From my perspective, I wouldn't put a company there unless I was prepared to give the employees 100% telecommuting. Having people lose 3 hours of their lives daily to breathing in fumes and looking at other cars' bumpers is an almost criminal waste of their time.
Sorry robg, I didn't mean to evade your question. I tried giving some background that makes the answer more obvious.
