Comments on: EOT and MBTA Do Good with BRT http://www.pioneerinstitute.org/blog/news/eot-and-mbta-do-good-with-brt/ Public Policy Research Mon, 30 Jan 2012 21:19:06 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: The Great Shmendrecki http://www.pioneerinstitute.org/blog/news/eot-and-mbta-do-good-with-brt/comment-page-1/#comment-2211 The Great Shmendrecki Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:14:31 +0000 http://www.pioneerinstitute.org/blog/?p=1018#comment-2211 Agreed, well done. Now let's make a deal: EOT implements BRT as planned on the 28X if and only if they do the same for the Silver bus Line along Washington Street. Alternatively the T gives up the ghost and stops calling the Silver bus Line BRT and instead refers to it as what it really is, a bus that moves far slower than anticipated, is constantly stuck in traffic, has approx. 100 yards of contraflow lane and is bumped into traffic by cars parked in the "dedicated bus lane." Or is there a reason the riders of MBTA's shining new line should get worse service? Agreed, well done.
