Two state lawmakers are pressing MBTA brass for answers this week after an investigative report by NBC10 Boston documented delays with the refurbishment of trolleys on the Mattapan High-Speed Line.
The report claimed that the $7.9 million project to restore existing Presidential Conference Committee (PCC) trolley cars is two years behind schedule and could impact a larger, $118-million plan to modernize the light-rail line between Mattapan Square and Ashmont.
On May 6, state Rep. Brandy Fluker Oakley and her colleague, Rep. William J. Driscoll, Jr. sent a letter to MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak citing the news report and requesting a briefing for lawmakers “as soon as possible.”
