I had business in #Cambridge today.
So, I took the #MBTA Red Line from Alewife to Harvard. The trip took 28 minutes for three stops. Slow zones make cars travel at walking speed. And I might have felt safer walking, too.
The #T is beyond run down, more than embarrassing. It’s dangerous. The cars’ doors don’t work; concrete is crumbling wherever you look. Escalators and elevators? Ha!
Somehow, we’ve managed to exceed the shabbiness one associates with late Soviet-era infrastructure.
