MassDOT to discuss study on passenger rail from North Adams to Greenfield, Boston
MassDOT will be holding a virtual public information meeting later this month to discuss the Northern Tier Passenger Rail Study. The Northern Tier Passenger Rail would stretch across the state from North Adams to Greenfield to Boston. The study examined the costs, investments and potential benefits of implementing a passenger rail in the northern part of the state. Speed, frequency and reliability are also factors being looked at through the study to see if this is a competitive option for travel.
