Boston Globe: “MassDOT pledges to push funding for Green Line Extension”
The state Department of Transportation renewed its commitment to securing federal funding for the Green Line Extension today, pledging to formally initiate the New Starts application process by the end of the month.
The New Starts program, which is the federal government’s primary financial resource for supporting major transit projects, funds new and existing fixed guideway systems including commuter rail, light and heavy rail, bus transit, streetcars and ferries.
