Title
MBTA: The Unfixable Behemoth
Description
In my essay, I examine the MBTA and why it is broken both politically and infrastructure wise. I examine and analyze why the record snowfall of 2015 led to such a collapse in service for an extended period of time while discussing some of the challenges to getting it back on track. I also ask if this winter was a critical juncture for the MBTA and the state, and whether significant long-term change will come about due to the mangled mess that passed as customer service. Finally, I look at the long-term prospects of the MBTA including the possibility of Olympic-funded improvements and expansions.
