Description

Press release from the Woburn Chamber of Commerce: July 23, 2022 MIDDLESEX – For those residing and working in Stoneham and Woburn, the Mass. Bay Transit Authority's (MBTA) proposed overhaul of bus routes across the state has generated predictable but disparate reactions. In late June, during a virtual public forum on the Mass. Bay Transit Authority's so-called "Better Bus" initiative, elected officials and residents from both communities took to Zoom to sound off about a series of planned modifications to regional bus routes. Residents in Woburn, Stoneham and beyond now have just a few other opportunities on July 26 and July 28 to let their feelings be known about the proposed service area reforms, which also include important changes to 137 bus line with reductions in service along North Avenue in Wakefield and to the 134 bus line with a discontinuation of several stops along the northern edges of Winchester. This press release was produced by the Woburn Chamber of Commerce. The views expressed here are the author's own.
