BOSTON - Wednesday, August 16, 2023 - Mayor
Michelle Wu is seeking ideas
and recommendations from residents to inform the City of Boston’s
representation on the MBTA Board. Earlier this month,
the State Legislature and Governor passed a state budget that created a
City of Boston seat on the Board of Directors of the MBTA, giving the City
a direct role in the governance of the region’s public transit system.
Mayor Wu wants community to be a partner in building this new relationship
with the MBTA to best reflect the needs of commuters and riders.
Boston’s economic strength, community well-being,
and cultural vibrancy depend on public transportation and the City is ready
to partner on of building the quality transit that our entire region
deserves. In the coming weeks, Mayor Wu will be considering candidates to
serve on the Board of Directors, which meets monthly and holds monthly
subcommittee meetings. Click here to
learn more about leadership at the MBTA.
Those interested in serving should be:
· A
resident of Boston
· A
public transit rider
· Connected
to communities of transit riders, including employees, customers, and
students
· Committed
to high quality, reliable, and affordable public transportation as a core
strategy of economic growth, cultural vibrancy, and quality of life.
The City is also asking residents and community
members to help inform Boston’s involvement on the MBTA Board. Residents
can submit ideas and/or interest through this form by
Monday, September 5th at 5 p.m. For more information, visit boston.gov/mbta-board | |
