POLL: Do You Support the MBTA Service Cuts?

Tough economic times have been hitting the country for several years, and commuters aren’t getting spared any of the cost.

Most recently The Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA) proposed a rate increase as well as a service cut.

According to Boston.com hundreds of people gathered at the Boston Public Library to speak out against the cuts.

“Under terms of the proposal, the T would raise subway fares by up to 70 cents and dramatically cut bus routes, eliminate ferries, and end weekend commuter rail trains. The plan was unveiled last month to help erase a projected $161 million deficit for the fiscal year beginning in July,” the article said.

The MetroWest area is full of people that commute in and out of the city on a daily basis, so we want to know what you think of the changes. Take the poll and tell us how you feel in the comments.
