I want to let you know about the recent efforts of some downtown residents and DTLna members to get the MBTA/MBCR to clean up its act.
At recent meetings, many have remarked on safety concerns, crime, and lack of regular maintenance.
Area bloggers are doing their part with posts like these: http://www.downtownlynn.com/2010/07/monday-tuesday-pukey-days-wednesday.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+DowntownLynn+%28Downtown+Lynn%2C+Massachusetts%29
and http://www.lynnexperiment.com/2010/07/mtba-time-for-some-action.html
(If the links don’t work, go to downtownlynn.com and lynnexperiment.com)
But, you don’t have to be a blogger to make a difference. Please consider writing to
John Hogan
Director of Safety and Security, MBCR
89 South Street, 8th Floor
Boston, MA 02111
email – John.Hogan@mbcr.net
Rep. Steve Walsh is passing our concerns on to the T as well. Please cc. him on your letter and let him know of any issues you encounter using the Central Sq Garage and stop – Rep.StevenWalsh@hou.state.ma.us
Quite a few have already written letters (see the sample on lynnexperiment.com), but we need to keep on top of the T and we need to let them know we’re not just a small group of concerned citizens, but representative of many commuters.
Thanks,
Seth
