It s Tuesday, Jan. 26. Here is what Patch has been covering in Middlesex County and across Massachusetts today.
Transit officials will study an extension of Silver Line service to a handful of greater Boston communities, including Somerville. The Silver Line Extension Alternatives Analysis, announced Monday by MassDOT and the MBTA, will assess the feasibility, utility and cost of different alignments and service frequencies in Somerville, Everett, Cambridge, Chelsea and Boston. In Somerville, we pride ourselves in aligning transportation policy with housing and economic development policy, Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone said in a statement. Our advocacy for one-seat mass transit service connecting Logan Airport with Kendall Square via East Somerville is rooted in a firm commitment to addressing current and historic inequities in our City and in our region.
