Better quality of life. Reaching local and regional climate-related goals. Supporting transit-oriented development. Raised economic potential.
These were some of the highlights regarding the Winchester Center station demolition work and accessibility improvements that were discussed during a virtual public hearing on Feb. 23 with the MBTA and the town of Winchester.
The project began about a decade ago and reaching the construction phase is a major milestone, according to State Sen. Jason Lewis, who attended the hearing.
“This has been a long and arduous process to bring us to this point in time,” he said. “It’s a very challenging project given the location of the station, squeezed right in of course to Winchester’s downtown. There’s a lot that needs to be done to approve this station.”
