Mobility Challenges and Solutions
To determine long-range capital investment strategies and priorities for the PMT, the MBTA identified current mobility challenges faced by customers, as well as near- and far-term anticipated travel needs. As an important element of this effort, the MBTA held a series of workshops to solicit public input. These focused on various travel corridors in the MBTA system and the mobility issues specific to the mix of services in each corridor, as well as across corridors. In addition to reviewing input received at the workshops, the MBTA also analyzed ridership trends and projections to identify the mobility problems that are addressed in the current PMT.
After mobility problems were defined, the MBTA developed specific project proposals to resolve them. In some cases, these projects bring existing equipment and infrastructure into a state of good repair or maintain them at that level. In other cases, the projects will enhance or expand the existing system to meet current and evolving mobility needs.
